Wireless LAN User's Guide Configuration of the WLAN Device The WLAN Device can be configured to establish wireless network connectivity using one of the following tools: ■ Intel PROSet Software - The Intel PROSet Software allows for multiple profile setup and supports automatic profile switching. Support for most industry standard security solutions is contained in this software. ■ Atheros Client Utility - The Atheros Client Utility software allows for multiple profile setups and supports automatic profile switching. Support for most industry standard security solutions is contained in this software. FLOW OF OPERATIONS 1. Activate the WLAN Device (See Activating the WLAN Device on page 88 for more information). 2. Configure the Wireless Network parameters. ■ Enter the network name (SSID) ■ Choose the appropriate WLAN architecture (Ad Hoc or Infrastructure) ■ Choose Authentication method: Open, Shared, WPA-Enterprise, WPA2-Enterprise, WPAPersonal, or WPA2-Personal ■ If using static WEP keys, enter static WEP key and choose key index. 3. Configure network settings (See Configure Network Parameters on page 89 for more information) ■ TCP/IP settings ■ Workgroup or Domain settings. CONFIGURATION USING INTEL PROSET SOFTWARE This section explains the procedure to properly configure the WLAN device using the Intel PROSet Software. Pre-defined parameters will be required for this procedure. Please consult with your network administrator for these parameters: Network Name - Also known as the SSID Network Key (WEP) - Required if using static WEP keys. Authentication Type - Open, Shared, WPA, or WPAPSK Procedure 1. Activate the WLAN device using either the Wire- less On/Off Switch or the Intel PROSet software. 2.
