FLOW OF OPERATIONS

The wireless LAN connection procedure contained in

this section is outlined below.

transmission of radio waves from the wireless LAN.

For further details, see (See Starting Transmission

on page 54 for more information.).

2. Assign the parameters required for wireless LAN

connection. (See Preparation for wireless LAN con-

nection on page 55 for more information.).

■

Configure network name (SSID).

■

Configure wireless LAN security parameters as

appropriate (e.g., WEP, TKIP, 802.1x/EAP).

3. Perform setting operations relating to network con-

nection. (See Connection to the network on page 57

for more information.)

■

Specify TCP/IP as the protocol, and confirm the name

of the work group and other settings.

■

Enter the data required for file/printer sharing on the

network. Perform this operation as required.

■

For access point (or “infrastructure”) connection,

configure the wireless module with appropriate

parameters required to associate to the access point

network.

■

Verify that you are able to connect your computer to

the network.

PREPARATION FOR WIRELESS LAN

CONNECTION

This section explains the preparations required to use

the wireless LAN when using the Windows XP Wireless

Zero Configuration Tool. Configuration can also be

accomplished using the wireless module (Intel or

Atheros) configuration utility.

Assigning parameters

Enter the network name (SSID), the network key, and

other data required for wireless LAN connection. If there

is the administrator of the network, contact the network

administrator for data settings.

1. Make sure the Wireless LAN switch is switched on.

2. Click the [Start] button first and then [Control

Panel].

3. If the Control Panel is in Category view, switch to

Classic view by clicking “Switch to Classic View”

under Control Panel the left frame. (If you are

already in Classic view, “Switch to Category View”

will be displayed instead.)

4. Double-click the Network Connections icon. A list

of currently installed networks will be displayed.

5. Right-click [Wireless Network Connection] in the

list, and then click [Properties] in the menu dis-

played. The [Wireless Network Connection Proper-

ties] window will be displayed.

6. Click the [Wireless Networks] tab.

7. Click [Refresh], then choose the correct SSID from

the [Available Networks] window. Click [Config-

ure] and proceed to step 10. If the SSID of your

access point does not appear in the list, click [Add].

The [Wireless Network Properties] window will be

displayed.

8. Select the Association tab if it is not already

selected.

9. Enter the information required for connection to

the wireless LAN.

a. Enter the network name (SSID). (i.e., Enter the

name of the desired network in less than 33

ASCII characters).

■

To use access point (infrastructure) con-

nection, refer to the access point manual

for the access point-setting procedure.

■

You do not need to set the channel

when using access point (infrastructure)

mode. Channel selection is controlled by

the access point. In ad hoc networks,

channel selection defaults to channel 11;

however, channel selection can be man-

ually changed if desired. This can be

accomplished only when using the client

utility.

If it is necessary to change the channel,

change the setting of the access point.

For the setting procedure, refer to the

manual of the access point.
