Device Configuration - D-Link DW-290 User Manual

Device Configuration

Windows XP zero-configuration functionality allows the user to select and join
a wireless network without having to configure the device separately. You
can decide to choose the default parameters and directly proceed to zero-
configuration in Section "Windows XP Wireless Network Configuration" on
page 5-20.
Similar to Windows 2000, configuration of the D-Link DW-290 Wireless
Network mini PCI Card can be done through the Network Control Panel
(NCP) in adapter properties. You can set the Wireless Network mini PCI
Card to work in one of two modes: infrastructure mode or ad hoc mode. See
Section "Device Configuration" beginning on page 2-17 for more details on
these network connection types.
To launch NCP go to Device Manager, right-click "D-Link DW-290 Wireless
Network mini PCI Card," and select Properties to access to the properties of
the adapter.
