CONFIGURING THE WIRELESS LAN

The optional WLAN device can be configured to estab-
lish wireless network connectivity using the software

dure. Please consult with your network administrator
for these parameters:

Classic View from the left panel. Double-click the
Network and Sharing Center icon.
3. Select "Manage wireless networks" from the left
panel.
4. Click on the [Add] button.
5. Depending upon what type of connection you
would like to make, make a selection. For an infra-
structure network, select "Manually create a net-
work profile. For ad hoc network, select "Create an
ad hoc network".
6. Enter the required information. It may be necessary
to consult with your network administrator for
some of the information.
7. In the event you require assistance, go to the Net-
work and Sharing Center window (Start -> Control
Panel -> Network and Sharing Center), and type in
relevant keywords in the Search box.
