ı-3 Checking the
settings
[NOTE]
• If the driver for the ICOM
wireless LAN card has not
been installed in the com-
puter,
"Icom
SL-1100
Wireless
LAN
Adapter
(PCMCIA 3V)" will not be
included in the list of net-
work components and it will
not be possible to display
the screen shown to the
right (illustrating Windows
98).
See the instruction manual
provided with the wireless
LAN card for more informa-
tion
about
the
setting
screen and installing the
driver.
• If you are using Windows
95, the items displayed
under [Property] will be dif-
ferent.
The [ESS ID] is used to prevent unauthorized access
to the wireless network group.
The [ESS ID] of both AP-3 unit and the wireless LAN card
are factory set to "LG" (upper gas letters).
The computers that will have a wireless connection with
the AP-3 and the other computers in the same network
group must have the same [ESS ID]. Otherwise the
devices will not be able to communicate.
Check the [Network Mode] and [ESS ID] settings
using the setting screen.
Be sure to restart the computer if you change any set-
ting values. Otherwise the new settings will not be effec-
tive and the computer will not be able to make the wire-
less connection with the AP-3 unit.
However, restarting is not necessary if the Utility provid-
ed with the LAN card is used to change the settings.
See the instruction manual provided with the wireless
LAN card for more information.
