The HP setup and configuration utility supports legacy operating
systems and Cisco Compatible Extension program features. The
Cisco Compatible Extensions program for WLAN devices
assures compatibility between Cisco Aironet WLAN products
and certain notebook models through extensive independent
testing. Because a Cisco Compatible wireless device is IEEE
802.11 compliant and WiFi certified, it is fully compatible with
other WiFi certified products.
