Using Profiles

The first thing you will notice is the “Profile Name” bar. Using profiles

allows you to save configurations for different wireless networks. For

instance, if you use your Card at your place of work and also at your

home, your wireless network settings may be different for each location.

Profiles let you store settings for each location and name them for easy

identification. The “default” profile will contain the initial configuration

setting when you install the Card.

In Ad-Hoc mode, each wireless device will use the same SSID to create a

small wireless network. For instance, if you want to connect a PDA to a

PC, then both must have the same SSID such as “WLAN”. In addition, the

wireless channel must also be the same. See “Ad-Hoc Channel”.

To Create a New Profile

1. Click the “New” button. The current entry will be highlighted. Type a

new name such as “Work”.

2. Click the “Apply” button to save the profile name.

3. Any changes you make to the wireless settings will now apply to

this profile.
