3 Configuration Utility The Configuration Utility is a powerful application that helps you c onfigure the HWU5 4DM and monitor the link status and statistics of your wireless co nnection. The Configuration Utility appears as an icon o n t he system tray of your Windows operating system while the card is running. You can ope n it by double -cli ckin[...]

Parameter Description Available Net works This list shows all avail able wireless networks within range of your card. It also displays the information of the networks in cludi ng the SSID, BSSID, Signal S trength, Channel, Encryption, Authentication and Network T ype. If you want to connect to any networks on the list, double-cli ck the item on the[...]

Activate Button Click “Activat e” to connect to the selected profile. 3.2.1 Configure the Profile System Configuration Parameter Description Profile Name Define a recognizable profile name for you to identify the dif ferent networks. SSID The SSID (up to 32 printabl e ASCII characters) is the unique name identified in a WLAN. The ID prevents th[...]

Parameter Description Network T ype Infrastructure – This o per ation mod e require s the p resen ce of an 802.1 1 Access Point. All communication is done via the Access Point or Router . Ad-Hoc – Select this mode if you want to conne ct to anothe r wireless st ation in the Wireless LAN n etwork without going through an Access Point or Router .[...]

Authentication vs. Security Parameter Description Authentication T ype This setting has to be cons istent with the wirele ss networks that the card intends to connect to. All security keys within a network must match to allow su ccessful comm unications. None – No authentication is needed am ong the wi reless network. Shared – Only wireless st [...]

Parameter Description Encryption Mode None – Disable the WEP Data Encrypti on. WEP – Enable the WEP Data Encryption. When the it em is selected, you have to continue setting the WEP Encryption keys. TKIP – TKIP (T emporal Key Integrity Protocol) changes the temporal key every 10,000 packets (a p a cket is a kind of message transmitted over a [...]

3.2. 2 Enab le WP A in W indows XP Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is a specification of standards -b a sed, interope rable security enhancement that strongly increase s the level of data protection (encryption) and access control (authentication) for existing and future wi reless LAN systems. The tech nical components of WPA include Temporal Key Inte[...]

3. Press the “Configure” button to configure the WP A function fo r the current netw or k. Note: Uncheck “Use W indows to Configur e my wirele ss network settings”, the “RaConfig” utility will be enabled again. Parameter Description Network Authentication Open –No authentication is needed amo ng the wireless network. Shared – Only w[...]

Parameter Description Data Encryption WEP – In WP A or WP A-PSK mode, WEP is also able to be the encryption method for the transmission dat a. TKIP – TKIP (T emporal Key Integrity Protocol) changes the temporal key every 10,000 packets (a packet is a kind of message transmitted over a network.) This insures mu ch greater se cu rity than the sta[...]

for the networking. Parameter Description Current Tx Rate Display the transmiss ion rate of the network. The m a ximum transmission rate is 54Mbps. Throughput (Kbits/sec) Display the s peed of dat a transmitted and received. Link Quality This bar indicates the qualit y of the link. The higher the percentage, the better the quality . dBm If you want[...]

Reading the Link S t atus Page and Obt aining the Strongest Connection The Link Status page gives you information re garding your current wireless channel, transmit rate (speed) and link/signal quality.
