Use Auto Profile Selection—This option causes the client adapter's driver to automatically select
a profile from the list of profiles that were set up to be included in auto profile selection.
If the client adapter loses association for more than 10 seconds (or for more than the time specified
by the LEAP authentication timeout value on the LEAP Settings screen if LEAP is enabled), the
driver switches automatically to another profile that is included in auto profile selection. The adapter
will not switch profiles as long as it remains associated or reassociates within 10 seconds (or within
the time specified by the LEAP authentication timeout value). To force the client adapter to associate
to a different access point, you must select a new profile using the Use Selected Profile option.
This option is available only if two or more profiles are included in auto profile selection.

Login scripts are not reliable if you use auto profile selection with LEAP. If you LEAP

network connectivity after you log into the computer, the login scripts will not run.

other than ACU to configure the client adapter. Examples of such applications include Windows XP
and Boingo.
Note You must select this option if you are configuring your card through Windows XP but want
to use ACU's diagnostic tools. Refer to
