The next screen to appear will be the Available Wireless Network screen.

This screen provides two options for setting up the Adapter.

• Available Wireless Network. (For most users.) Use this option if you already have a network set up. The

networks available to this Adapter will be listed on this screen. You can choose one of these networks and

click the Connect button to connect to it. Click the Refresh button to update the Available Wireless Network

list.

• Manual Setup. If your network is not listed on this screen, select Manual Setup to set up the adapter

manually. This method of setting up the Adapter is intended for Advanced Users only.

The setup for each option is described, step by step, under the appropriate heading on the following pages.

Click Exit to close the Setup Wizard, if you wish to set up the Adapter later.

Available Wireless Network

The available networks are listed in the table on the center of the screen by SSID. Select the wireless network you

wish to connect to and click the Connect button. (If you do not see your network listed, you can click the Refresh

button to bring the list up again.) If the network utilizes wireless security, you will need to configure security on

the Adapter. If not, you will be taken directly to the Congratulations screen.

1. If you have wireless security enabled on your network, continue to step 2. If you don’t have wireless security

enabled, continue to step 3.

2. If your network has the wireless security WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) enabled, this screen will appear.

Select what is used by your network devices, 64-bit or 128-bit. Then enter your network devices’

passphrase or manually enter your network devices’ WEP key.

Passphrase - Enter a passphrase in the Passphrase field, so a WEP key is automatically generated. The

passphrase is case-sensitive and should not be longer than 16 alphanumeric characters. It must match the

passphrase of your other wireless network devices and is compatible with Linksys wireless products only. (If

you have any non-Linksys wireless products, enter the WEP key manually on those products.)
