Using the Belkin Wireless Network Utility
Note to Windows XP users: If you are using Windows XP, please read
this section first.
Windows XP integrates a wireless management utility referred to as
Windows XP Wireless Zero Configuration service (WZC). The WZC can
be used to control your Adapter. You can also use the Belkin Wireless
Network Monitor Utility. We suggest that you use the Belkin Utility to
control your Adapter. In order to avoid conflicts between the utilities, we
recommend disabling the Windows XP Wireless Zero Confirmation Service.
Disabling the Windows XP Wireless Zero Configuration Service (WZC)
1.
Right-click on the network status icon in the system tray and select the
“View Available Wireless Networks” window.
2. Click on the “Advanced” button in the lower left-hand corner of the “View
Available Wireless Networks” window.
3. On the Advanced tab, uncheck “Use Windows to Configure my Wireless
Network.” Once this box is unchecked, click “OK” to close the window.
You are now using the Belkin Wireless Utility to configure the Wireless Adapter.
If you choose to use the WZC, directions for operation are available in the
Windows XP help file. When you first install the Adapter, the Belkin Utility will
be enabled. If you want to disable the Belkin Utility in order to use the WZC,
follow the steps below to disable the Belkin Utility.
