5. Operating the WI-CONNECT PRO on Windows

The WI-CONNECT PRO can be operated in two ways;

Using the standard Windows Wireless Connection Manager – simplest method under Windows Vista and 7

Using the Realtek Wireless LAN Utility – best method for older Windows XP systems (prior to Service Pack

The Realtek utility does provide some benefits over the Windows Wireless Manager that Microsoft provided, but in

general most people prefer to use the standard Windows Wireless Manager which they know and are familiar with.

IMPORTANT NOTE - It is always best to turn off (disable) the internal wireless adaptor on your laptop before using the

WI-CONNECT PRO. The exact method to do this, varies from PC to PC, but some laptops have a dedicated button in or

around the keyboard area or a special keyboard combination e.g. pressing the Fn + F8 keys.

Operating the WI-CONNECT PRO on Windows Vista and Windows 7

Click on the Wireless Networks icon in the task bar (lower right hand side of

the screen) and a list of the available wireless networks (hotspots) will be

displayed. Your laptops internal wireless adaptor is usually named "Wireless

Network Connection" and the WI-CONNECT PRO will automatically be named

"Wireless Network Connection 2" or possibly another number if other adaptors

have been used previously.

It is possible to rename this connection to something more meaningful by

going in to the "Network and Sharing Center" and renaming the Network

Adaptor to "WI-CONNECT PRO Wi-Fi Adaptor" or similar, so that you can be

certain of which wireless adaptor you are using – as shown in Fig 17.

Click on the wireless network you wish to connect to and click the "Connect"

button that will appear. You may be asked to enter a password or confirm if

the network is a Public, Work or Private network (to set security levels) and

then the wireless connection should be made and you will be able to connect

to the internet.

Operating WI-CONNECT PRO on Windows XP - Using the Realtek Utility

To connect to a wireless network, you must run the "Realtek USB Wireless LAN Utility" which will now be one of the

programs listed in the Start>All Programs menu. The first time you run this program, you will see the window displayed in

Figure 18 which shows that you are not connected to a wireless network.
