matching profile is found, the Configuration Service automatically connects to any available
network. This mode is set in the Advanced Setting options.
Enabling Automatic Connection
The Configuration Service also monitors for the "resume status" after a laptop computer suspend event. When
this occurs, the Configuration Service will re-enable the automatic connection service.
These features can be enabled again after rebooting your computer or after a suspend and resume cycle.
Enable profile management features: Check this setting in the Advanced Settings options to manually re-
enable the Configuration Service profile management features after being disabled from the notification dialog
when another profile management application is detected. This option can only be used to re-enable the
Configuration Service features, it cannot be used to manually disable the Configuration Service features. Refer
to Profile Switching for more information.
Profile Management Options
The following Profile Management options can be found in Advanced Settings.
Display available networks when not associated: If no networks are available that match any profiles in the
Profile List, the Configuration Service dialog is displayed, listing the available networks. By checking "Don’t
show this again" option, the dialog listing the available networks will not be displayed again, if the adapter
becomes unassociated. The Configuration Service will continue to function and attempt to connect, using a
profile from the Profile List, or to an available network depending on the selection mode. This mean that if
Connect Using Preferred Profiles Only is selected and no matching profile is found, then the adapter will
remain unassociated. You can still use the Connect button from the Networks tab to connect to an available
network. The Configuration Service dialog can be re-enabled from the Advanced Settings options.
Notify when disabling profile management features: Check this box to display the service disabling
notification dialog when another Profile Management service is detected such as Windows XP Zero
Configuration or AAA clients. The notification dialog is displayed, indicating that another service has been
detected and that some of the Intel(R) PROSet management features will be disabled. From this dialog, you
can also choose "Don’t show this again," in which case the Intel(R) PROSet features will automatically be
disabled without notification. This dialog can be re-enabled from the Advanced Settings options.
Features affected when another profile management application is detected
For AAA Client:
Select OK, and the AAA Client application will manage the adapter. The current connection will continue with
the affected Intel(R) PROSet features show below. To avoid conflicts, the Intel(R) PROSet profile
management features have been temporarily disabled. To re-enable these features, first disable the other LAN
utility and then either:
1. Re-enable from Intel(R) PROSet's Advanced Settings.
2. Resume after a computer suspend.
3. Reboot the computer.
