software can be used, the Atheros Client Utility (ACU for short):
When installing the AirLancer driver under Windows XP or Windows
2000, the Atheros Client Utility is generally included with the
installation. Extensive information on the Atheros Client Utility can be

If you wish to use the ACU in Windows XP, you should deactivate the

 Control Panel and access Network
Connections. Click with the right-hand mouse key on Wireless

Wireless LAN encryption
The data transferred over WLAN is generally protected by encryption.
LANCOM Systems recommends the use of IEEE 802.11i (WPA2) in
combination with AES. This method currently offers the highest available
standard of security in wireless LANs. The key should be randomly selected
from the largest possible range of numbers and should be as long as possible
(32 to 63 characters). 
To register an AirLancer at a LANCOM wireless router or LANCOM access
