Important Notes
Inserting and Removing Client Adapters
The following rules apply when inserting and removing client adapters:
•
If you start ACU while a client adapter of one radio type is inserted (such as a 350 series PC card)
and then eject the card and replace it with a card of another radio type (such as a CB20A PC-Cardbus
card), ACU displays “Your Wireless LAN Adapter is not inserted” until ACU is shut down and
restarted.

card), ACU displays “Your Wireless LAN Adapter is not inserted” until ACU is shut down and
restarted.
•
The profiles for PC-Cardbus cards are tied to the slot in which the card is inserted. Therefore, you
must always insert your PC-Cardbus card into the same slot, create profiles for both slots, or export
the profiles for one slot and import them for the other slot.

make sure that the EAP-SIM option is not selected on the Custom Installation screen. Otherwise, the

Windows Wireless Network Connection Icon Shows Unavailable Connection
(Windows XP Only)
(Windows XP Only)
If your computer is running Windows XP and you configured your client adapter using ACU, the
Windows Wireless Network Connection icon in the Windows system tray may be marked with a red X
and show an unavailable connection even though a wireless connection exists. This condition is caused
by a conflict between ACU and Windows XP’s wireless network settings. Simply ignore the Windows
icon and use the ACM icon to check the status of your client adapter’s wireless connection.
