Basic Setup

3-1

This chapter describes how to install your NETGEAR 54 Mbps Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter WG111 
and set up basic wireless connectivity on your Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN). Advanced 
wireless network configuration is covered in 

 in this manual.

 

You need to verify your computer meets the minimum system requirements and identify the 
wireless network configuration settings of the WLAN where you will connect before you can 
configure your wireless USB adapter and connect. 

Before installing the NETGEAR 54 Mbps Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter WG111, please make sure 
that these minimum requirements have been met:
•

You must have a PC with a Pentium

®

 300 MHz or higher compatible processor with an 

available USB 2.0 or 1.1 port.

Note: If you do not have a USB 2.0 port on your PC, the throughput of the WG111 will be 
limited to the 14 Mbps of the USB 1.1 standard.

•

A  CD-ROM  drive.

•

5 Mbytes of free hard disk space.

Note: Indoors, computers can easily connect to 802.11 wireless networks at distances of 
several hundred feet. Because walls do not always block wireless signals, others outside 
your immediate area could access your network. It is important to take appropriate steps 
to secure your network from unauthorized access. The NETGEAR 54 Mbps Wireless 
USB 2.0 Adapter WG111 provides highly effective security features which are covered 
in 

 in this manual. Deploy the 

security features appropriate to your needs.
