The WLAN Configuration & Monitor Utility (WLAN Monitor) is the application that helps you 
to configure the wireless LAN card/adapter and monitor its status. Unlike the standard method of 
configuring the card via the operating system utilities (e.g. Control Panel/Adapter Properties), this 
application provides more functionalities with a user friendly GUI. 
 
Note: Please keep in mind that the WLAN Configuration & Monitor Utility can be used to change 
the configuration parameters only when the device is active. When the cards are not in use, please 
use the Control Panel method.

 

 
 

 
The WLAN Configuration & Monitor Utility is installed with the Drivers when you run the 
program “Autorun.exe,” as described before. 
 
There are two ways to bring up the application, To use the Windows Start-Up menu, you can 
locate the application under Start -> Programs ->WaveBuddy WLAN Card & Adapter Utility -> 
WLAN Configuration & Monitor Utility. 
 

 

 

A more convenient way is to use the icon in the system tray, located in the lower right corner of 
the screen, to access the application.   

 
 

 
The WLAN Configuration & Monitor Utility appears as an icon on the system tray of Windows 
every time the card is activated. You can open it by double-clicking on this icon.   
 
When the WLAN Station is in infrastructure mode and not associated to an Access Point, the 
color of the icon is red. As soon as the station associates itself to an Access Point (see “Site 
Survey” section), the icon color changes to blue.   
 
In Ad-Hoc mode the color is always blue, except when the card is resetting and initializing. 
 

 

 

The WLAN Monitor application has several panels serving various functions. If you are trying to 
connect to a Wireless LAN for the first time, we recommend you choose the “Site Survey” panel 
first. It will show you available APs in the area. From there you can choose the AP to connect and 
configure the WLAN NIC accordingly.
