Chapter 3    Using the Wireless Utility 
 
The WB01GS Wireless Utility is a powerful application that helps you to configure the 
Adapter and monitor the statistics of the communication link. It also permits the 
configuration for parameters while the Adapter is operating – no restarting is required. It 
also offers more configuration options than does Windows native Zero Wireless 
Configuration. It appears as the “G” icon in the task bar at the bottom right corner of 
screen whenever the Adapter is in operation (see Figure 3-1). The quick start icon also 
doubles as a signal strength monitor, as indicated by its four small green lights.

To open the WB01GS Utility, either double click the quick start icon located in your system 
tray, or from the Windows Start menu, select Programs, GIGA-BYTE 802.11 WLAN, 
GN-WB01GS SoftAP
 and then GN-WB01GS Utility
 
Note: You may only use the utility to change wireless configurations when the WB01GS 
Adapter is enabled and operating. You have to use Windows native Zero Configuration 
tool provided with Windows when the Adapter is not enabled. 
 
Opening the WB01GS Wireless Utility, you are presented with the Profile Tab. There are 5 
main tabs with which to control and monitor your WB01GS – Profile, Link, Site Survey, 
Statistics and the About Tab. The following sections will cover each tab in detail.
 
 
 
3.1. Profile  Tab 
 
The Profile tab shows you the current association information about the profile. (see 
Figure 3-2). Profiles are useful if you often associate with different access points.    You 
can configure a group of settings depending on the access point you often associate with 
and save as a profile, Click the Add button to create a new profile (see section below for 
further details), the Delete button to delete a selected profile, the Edit button to modify a 
selected profile and click the Activate button to have a selected profile become active.
