Configuring the Wireless LAN USB Adapter
Before you use the Creative Network Blaster Wireless LAN USB Adapter 2030, you 
may want to configure the card in the Configuration Utility.
If you want to use your computer in Peer-to-Peer network or Ad-hoc mode, all the 
wireless stations must have the same settings for Service Set Identifier (SSID), 
channel, and Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) if any. For more information, see “Ad-
hoc mode” on page 1-2.
In the Infrastructure mode, the wireless stations and the Access Point must have 
the same settings for SSID and WEP (if any). For more information, see 
Configuration Utility 
Icon
The Configuration Utility icon (Figure 4-1) 
appears on your computer taskbar after you 
have installed the drivers and Configuration 
Utility. It does not appear if the Wireless LAN 
USB Adapter is not connected to your 
computer.
The color of the Configuration Utility icon tells you the status of the Wireless LAN 
USB Adapter:
Green: In the Infrastructure mode, you are connected to an access point and the 
radio frequency (RF) signal strength is good. However, this does not ensure that 
your computer will be able to communicate with the access point.
In the Ad-hoc mode, the icon is always green, except while scanning the network.
Yellow: You are connected to an access point and the signal strength is poor.
Red: In Infrastructure or Ad-hoc mode, you are scanning the network.

terms.
