This chapter explains how to establish wireless connections using your CardBus Enhanced 
Wireless Network Adapter and the Wireless Adapter Utility. It is assumed here that — 

• 

you have completed installation of the adapter, driver, and utility; 

• 

you know how to start the utility, close and redisplay its window, and shut it down (see 

section 5.2, “Controlling the Utility”

); and 

• 

you are within range of at least one wireless device that is working and will accept a 

connection from you. 

Any wireless connection, even a connection to a single device, is treated in this chapter as a 
connection to a wireless network. There is, in fact, no difference in the steps required to connect 
wirelessly to a single device or a whole network, and a connection to a single device is in fact a 
true network connection. 

The utility has three panels:   

, 

, and 

. Illustrations and brief 

explanations of these panels are given below. 

The 

 panel shows information about any active wireless link and the settings of four 

important wireless networking controls. The figure below shows the usual appearance of this 
panel the first time you start the utility up.
