Appendix A - Disabling/Removing Wifi Drivers

General

Several problems such as WDE1000/1100 MCU application not detecting the WDE1000/1100 card or
other internal WiFi cards stopping to work might be caused by conflict problems between

WDE1000/1100 card and other WiFi cards using the same Atheros chipset (Cisco, D-Link, Proxim,
etc.) during installation process.

Other problems such as degradation of WDE1000/1100 performance or unexpected behavior of
WDE1000/1100 can also be caused by conflict problems between the WDE1000/1100 and other WiFi
cards at running time. In this case, the applications controlling the other cards should be disabled or
uninstalled while WDE1000/1100 is running.

It is strongly recommended that before MCU installation, other WiFi drivers and applications running
on your machine are disabled. If disabling these drivers does not resolve the conflicts, it will be
required to uninstall them. To uninstall these drivers, refer to the instructions supplied by the vendor.

Refer to the following paragraph for disabling other WiFi Drivers.
