NOTE: The following applies to Windows 98SE, Me, 2000. Under Windows XP, please use the
Wireless Zero Configuration tool built into Windows XP to configure your SMCWUSB32.
When the utility program is running, there will be a quick launch icon in the lower right-hand
corner of the taskbar. The icon will be GREEN if you have a good connection to a wireless
network. If it is red, you will need to verify the network settings and check to be sure that the
Wireless Access Point on your network is turned on. You may also need to re-position the Access
Point and place it in a higher position so that you are able to gain more wireless signal strength.
Double-click the quick launch icon in the system tray to bring up the Configuration Utility. This
provides quick access to management statistics and adapter settings.

Status: Allows you to view/monitor network status, throughput, wireless channel, and TCP/IP
Information.
