4.1.1 Ralink Wireless Utility (RaUI) or Windows Zero Configuration (WZC)
Windows XP includes a wireless configuration utility named "Windows Zero configuration" (WZC)
which provides basic configuration functions to the Ralink Wireless NIC. Ralink's utility (RaUI)
additionally provides WPA functionality. To make it easier for the user to select the correct utility. RaUI
will let users make a selection when it first runs after windows XP boots.
Double-clicking the icon will bring up the selection window and allow the user make a selection.
RaUI can co-exist with WZC. When coexisting with WZC, RaUI only provides monitoring functions,
such as surveying the link status, network status, statistic counters, advanced feature status, WMM
status and WPS status. It won't interfere with WZC's configuration or profile functions. It is shown as
Figure 1-2.
If "Use RaConfig as Configuration utility" is selected, please jump to Section 2 on running RaUI.
If "Use Zero Configuration as Configuration utility" is selected, please continue.
We will explain the difference between RaUI and WZC. Figure 1-3 shows the RaUI status when WZC
is activated as the main control utility.
