2. Hardware Installation 

2.1 System Requirements 

Before installing WLP-01, make sure your system meets the following requirements. 

•  A motherboard with PCI Express Slot 

•  Minimum 64MB system memory 

•  Operating system 

Station mode: Windows XP/Server 2003, Windows XP/Server 2003 x64 
AP/wireless bridge mode: Windows XP/Server 2003

2.2 Hardware Installation 

The WLP-01 package comes together with an omni-directional portable antenna to extend its 
maximum operating range. 

1. 

Power off your system before installing 
the WLP-01 card. 

 

(This picture is for reference only, and may have 
size, shape, or parts differences in the antenna or 
WLAN card itself.) 

2. 

Locate one available PCI-E X1 slot on 
your motherboard. (Due to each 
motherboard’s different designing, 
it is recommended to install the 
WLP-01 card on PCI-E X1 slot, so as 
to avoid degrading the speed of the 
PCI-E X16 card.) 

3. Plug 

the 

WLP-01 card with its 

connector-side vertically down into the 
slot. (Avoid touching the connector 
(golden fingers) when holding the 
WLP-01 card.) 

4. Secure 

the 

WLP-01 card by its bracket 

onto the chassis’s rear I/O panel. 

5. 

Connect the cable-end from the external antenna to the antenna port on WLP-01 card. 

6. 

Place the antenna at an elevated spot. A wide and open position will help to increase the 
operating range.
