After installing the Adapter, as shown below, and restarting your PC, the Setup Wizard will continue.

Connecting the Adapter

1. If you haven’t already done so, power off your desktop PC before installing the Adapter.

2. Open your PC case and locate an available PCI slot on the motherboard.  Check with your computer 

manufacturer for instructions. 

3. Slide the Adapter into the PCI slot. Make sure that all of its pins are touching the slot's contacts. You may have 

to apply a bit of pressure to slide the Adapter all the way in. After the Adapter is firmly in place, secure its 
fastening tab to your PC's chassis with a mounting screw. Then, close your PC.

4. Connect the antenna stand’s cables to the PCI card of the Adapter. Plug the cable with the blue connector into 

the blue CENTER ANT port. Then attach the remaining cables to the other ANT ports.

5. Power on your desktop PC.

Setting up the Adapter

The next screen to appear will be the Available Wireless Networks screen. It provides two options for setting up 
the Adapter.

Available Wireless Networks (for most users). Use this option if you already have a network configured. The 
networks available to this Adapter will be listed on-screen. You can choose one of these networks and click 
the Connect button to connect to it. Click the Refresh button to update the Available Wireless Network list.

•

Advanced Setup. If your network is not listed on this screen, select Advanced Setup to set up the Adapter 
manually. This method of setting up the Adapter is intended for advanced users only.

The setup for each option is described, step by step, under the appropriate heading on the following pages.

Click Back to close the Setup Wizard, if you wish to set up the Adapter later.

NOTE: The antenna cable with the blue connector must plug into the blue CENTER ANT 
port. The other antenna cables plug into the rest of the Adapter’s ANT ports.
