to update slowly.

networking software. If it does, remove the 3Com CD and insert the
appropriate CD.

select Custom. See "Custom Installation Options" on page 34 for details on
custom settings. For the fastest installation, it is recommended that you use the
typical settings. You can customize the configuration later as described in
"Configuring the Wireless Client" on page 43.
