Why are there two wireless utilities in my system tray?

Which one should I use?

There are several features and advantages to using the
Belkin Wireless Setup Utility over the Windows XP Wireless
Zero Configuration utility. We offer a site survey, detailed link
information, and adapter diagnosis, to name a few.

It’s essential to know which utility is managing your adapter. We
recommend using the Belkin Wireless Setup Utility. To use the
Belkin Wireless Setup Utility, follow the steps below:

Right-click on the network status icon in the system tray

and select “View Available Wireless Networks”.

Click on the “Advanced” button in the lower left-hand

corner of the “Available Wireless Networks” window.

Step 3

From the “Advanced” tab, uncheck “Use Windows to

configure my wireless network”. Once the box is unchecked,
click “OK” to close the window.

You are now using the Belkin Wireless Setup Utility to configure
