STEP 4: Configure the Notebook adapter for your wireless network

Check the Utility icon (four vertical bars) next to your computer’s time display. If the bars are green, you
are already connected and do not need to run the Wizard (skip to bottom of page 6). If the bars are not
green within 30 seconds, double-click the Utility icon, then click the Run Wizard button at the next
screen.

Wizard screen 1

SSID

Enter the SSID (Service Set
Identifier) used by your wireless
router or access point. The default
SSID is at&t. The SSID is case sensi-
tive (i.e., “cat” and “Cat” are not the
same). All wireless adapters on your
network must use the same SSID as
your wireless router and/or access
point.

WEP Encryption

WEP is a form of encryption. If you
click On to enable encryption in your
wireless adapter, you must turn on
WEP in your router, and make sure
all devices use the same settings.

Click Apply to save your settings and
display Wizard screen 2 (see next page).

Double-click here to launch Utility (see below). Number of green bars shows signal strength.

CAUTION: SSID and all WEP settings must be identical in all wireless network devices. WEP
Ascii/Hex Key must match the WEP settings used in your router (may be called Security Phrase,
Hex Key or other term).

Click to begin.

NOTE: The Wizard screen (above) always shows factory
default settings, even if you have changed them. Go to the
Configuration screen to see your customized settings.
