Understanding the WPNT511 Smart Wizard Note: These instructions explain how to use the NETGEAR WPNT511 Smart Wizard to change the WPNT511 wireless settings. If you use Windows XP, and chose the Windows XP configuration utility during installation, then you must disable it now.

You can either double click this icon on the desktop, or click it in the system tray at any time, to use the Smart Wizard. This software automatically restarts when you reboot your computer.
