Depending on the software installed on your Tablet-PC, different wireless
configuration utilities may manage your network devices:
• Your wireless network adapter’s client utility
• The operating system
To determine which wireless configuration utility is managing your wireless
network adapter:
• In Windows Vista, click Start
→ Connect To→ Manage wireless
networks. Double-click a profile to open the wireless network properties
screen.
• In Windows XP, click
Start→ All Programs→ Dell Wireless→ Dell
Wireless WLAN Card Utility.
For specific information about the wireless configuration utility installed on
your Tablet-PC, see your wireless network documentation in "Windows Help
Completing the Connection to the WLAN
When you turn on your Tablet-PC and a network (for which your Tablet
-
PC
is not configured) is detected, a pop-up appears in the lower-right corner of
the Windows desktop.
Follow any instructions that appear on your screen.
Once you have configured your Tablet-PC for the wireless network that you
selected, another pop-up notifies you that your Tablet-PC is connected to
that network.
Thereafter, whenever you log on to your Tablet-PC within the range of the
wireless network that you selected, the same pop-up notifies you of the
wireless network connection.
NOTE:
If you select a secure network, you must enter a WEP or WPA key when
prompted. Network security settings are unique to your network. Dell cannot
provide this information.
NOTE:
Your Tablet-PC can take up to 1 minute to connect to the network.
