Chapter 3 Connect to a Wireless Network
With both the hardware and software successfully installed into your computer, you can quickly
connect to a wireless network using one of the following methods.
¾ Method One: To connect using TWCU (TP-LINK Wireless Configuration Utility)
TL-WDN4800 uses the TWCU as the management software. The utility provides you an easy
interface to connect to a network and to change any settings related to the wireless adapter.
¾ Method Two: To connect using WPS
By this method, you can connect to your network quickly on the condition that your Router or
access point supports WPS or QSS as is called by some other products.
¾ Method Three: To connect using Windows built-in wireless utility
Windows users may use the built-in wireless utility to connect to a wireless network. For specific
operations, please go to Section 3.3 To connect using Windows built-in wireless utility.
