If you need to install the driver manually, refer each Windows OS to the following CD-Rom directory path: D:\Drivers\<Windows OS>\SIS163U.INF. Note: (D:\ will depends on where the CD-ROM drive is located and <Windows OS> will depend on the Windows Operating System you are using). 3. The Install Shield Wizard screen will appear. Click “Next” to continue. 4. The installation program will help you to setup the Wireless Utility. Be noted that the Windows XP have its own Wireless Utility; you can either use the utility of Windows XP or the provided utility. 5. You will see the icon on the Windows task bar when you finish the installation. When the icon in the toolbar represents in green color, it is properly connected to the network and if it represents in red color, then it is not connected to the network. 3 Wireless Utility Setting With the Wireless PCIe Adapter utility, users can configure all the functions provided by the Wireless Monitor Utility. Double-click the utility icon that appears in the taskbar. The Wireless Monitor Utility includes seven tabs: Status, Configuration, Advanced, Profile, Network, Statistics and About. Status The Status screen shows you the status of the Wireless Adapter, it shows that where the device is connected to, the Network mode, the Channel, the transmit rate and the encryption mode. There are two dialog boxes showing the data transmitted and the data received. The two signal lines show the Signal Strength and the Link Quality of the device. 4 Configuration The Configuration function helps you to configure the Network and the Security. Network: the setting of the Network mode, the SSID and the Channels.
Network Mode: If you want to connect with an Access Point, please set to “Infrastructure” mode. If you have more stations and just want to set them as local network, please set the mode to “Ad-Hoc” mode.
Network SSID: The SSID differentiates one Wireless LAN group name from another; so all access points and all devices attempting to connect to a specific Wireless LAN group name must use the same SSID. A device will not be permitted to join the BSS unless it can provide the unique SSID. If the SSID parameter is “ANY”, it will detect the strongest signal of the wireless station.
Channel: It shows radio channel numbers that used for Wireless LAN networking. The channel number can be set only under the Ad-Hoc operation mode. In Ad-Hoc mode stations, each station must have the same channel numbers and SSID. In Infrastructure mode, the Wireless mini-PCI Adapter will automatically detect the channel number of the Access Point. Security: the setting of the Network Encryption. This function is used to protect wireless communication from eavesdropping. A secondary function of encryption is to prevent unauthorized access to a wireless network, and it can be achieved by using the Encryption function.
Encryption Mode: There are two kinds of encryption mode, WEP encryption and WPA-PSK. Click the Enable Encryption to activate the security of the mini-PCI Adapter. WEP-Key: WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) relies on a secret key that is shared between a mobile station and a base station (Access Point). WEP-Passphrase: the Passphrase in the dialog box helps you to create a group of WEP key in t…
