4. Utility Configuration
4.1.1 Ralink Wireless Utility (RaUI) or Windows Zero Configuration
(WZC)
Windows XP includes a wireless configuration utility named "Windows Zero configuration" (WZC)
which provides basic configuration functions to the Ralink. Wireless NIC. Ralink's utility (RaUI) addi-
tionally provides WPA functionality. It's easier for the user to select the correct utility. RaUI will let
users make a selection when it first runs after windows XP boots. Double-clicking the icon will bring
up the selection window and allow the user make a selection.
RaUI can co-exist with WZC. When coexisting with WZC, RaUI only provides monitoring functions, such as surveying the
link status, network status, statistic counters, advanced feature status, WMM status and WPS status. It won't interfere with
WZC's configuration or profile functions. It is shown as Figure 1-2.
If "Use RaConfig as Configuration utility" is selected, please jump to Section 2 on running RaUI.
If "Use Zero Configuration as Configuration utility" is selected, please continue.
We will explain the difference between RaUI and WZC. Figure 1-3 shows the RaUI status when WZC is activated as the
main control utility.
