INTRODUCTION Congratulations on your purchase of this 802.11a/b/g/n PCIe Adapter. This manual helps to get familiar with the Wireless PCIe Adapter. This manual contains detailed instructions in operation of this product. Please keep this manual for future reference. With a Wireless LAN (IEEE 802.11g) mini PCI Adapter, a desktop or laptop computer can communicate with another computer in a wireless way.
SOFTWARE INSTALLATION This section will lead you to install the driver and utility of the Wireless PCIe Adapter via Windows OS installation. Windows 98se/ME/2000/XP Utility and Driver Installation 1. Insert the Wireless LAN mini PCI Adapter Driver & Utility CD-ROM into computer’s CD-ROM Drive and it will automatically run a setup menu and install the driver and the utility, for Win98se, please reboot the system to install the driver to the system properly.
Wireless Utility Setting With the Wireless PCIe Adapter utility, users can configure all the functions provided by the Wireless Monitor Utility. Double-click the utility icon that appears in the taskbar. The Wireless Monitor Utility includes seven tabs: Status, Configuration, Advanced, Profile, Network, Statistics and About.
Configuration The Configuration function helps you to configure the Network and the Security. Network: the setting of the Network mode, the SSID and the Channels. Network Mode: If you want to connect with an Access Point, please set to “Infrastructure” mode. If you have more stations and just want to set them as local network, please set the mode to “Ad-Hoc” mode.
It is recommended to select “Auto” if you are not familiar with the setting. Default Key (Key 1 ~ Key 4): You can type the key that you want to use from Key#1 to Key #4, and the key that you type will be the encryption between the stations that you connected with. Key Length, Key Format and WEP Key: If you select 64bit in Hex format, you must type 10 values in the following range (0~F, hexadecimal), or 64bit in ASCII format, you must type 5 values in the following range (0~9, A~Z and a~z Alphanumeric).
WPA-PSK: WPA-PSK (Wi-Fi Protected Access pre-shared key) is a simpler version that does not support 802.1x and requires a separate RADIUS server for mutual authentication. Enter a Passphrase in the WPA-PSK dialog box. This passphrase must be the same on each computer that is connected to the wireless network.
Advanced The Advanced settings help you to control the Wireless Adapter to adjust with wireless devices in certain environment. Transmit Rate: You can choose one of the transmission rates as follows, 54Mbps, 48Mbps, 36Mbps, 24Mbps, 18Mbps, 12Mbps, 11Mbps, 9Mbps, 6Mbps, 5.5Mbps, 2Mbps, 1Mbps, and Fully Automatic.
Preamble Type: The usage of the preamble is to limit the packet size of the data to transmit. It is recommended to choose the short preamble when the link quality is bad, it is to prevent the wasting time of resending a long packet that is lost. The Default is Auto which access short and long preamble. Fragment Threshold: Fragmentation Threshold is a way of transmitting the packets that will be fragmented. Choose a setting within a range of 256 to 2432 bytes.
Profile The Profile section allows you to set values for all parameters by selecting a previously defined profile. Type a name in the Profile Name field to create a profile, click “Save” and then click “Apply” when a profile is done. You can click “Delete” if the profile is no longer used, to activate other profile, choose a profile name in the Profile Name field and click Activate.
