Utility icon in the taskbar and select Open Intel My WiFi Utility. Use the help document in Intel
My WiFi Utility and search for Security. In the results, click Security Settings and follow the
instructions.

Your Wireless is Off

Normally, Wi-Fi allows the laptop to connect to the router for wireless Internet access. A new
feature included with Intel Wireless Display uses Wi-Fi to wirelessly connect the laptop to the TV
through the adapter.

For this new Wi-Fi connection to work correctly, three switches must be turned on. The first
switch is the hardware switch. It is usually located around the edge of the laptop or above the
keyboard. It may be identified by a pole with two half circles on each side. Check the laptop
manual for the exact location. Turn the switch on and scan again.

When needed, the other two switches are automatically turned on by the application. If it is still
impossible to connect because the application is not automatically turning the other switches on,
