Chapter 3 Using The Utility
The Configuration & Monitor Utility is a powerful application that helps you to configure the
card and monitor the statistics of the communication link. Unlike the standard method of
configuring the card via the operating system utilities (e.g. Control Panel), this application
permits the dynamic modification of the configuration parameters while the card is
operating. It also offers some more configuration options. It appears as an icon on the
Windows system tray whenever the card is running (see Figure 3-1). The icon can tell you
the received signal strength by four small green lights. You can open it by double-clicking
on this icon.
