This User’s Manual contains information on how to install and configure your Mini PCI
Wireless LAN/Modem Card. From now on, we will guide you through the correct
configuration steps to get your device up and run.
vii
Chapter 1 Introduction
Depending on your Mini PCI
Card model, your device may
not come with Modem
functionality.
This Wireless LAN/Modem Card provides two types of connectivity on one miniscule card:
conventional modem connectivity and Wireless LAN connectivity. The card puts the IEEE
802.11b WLAN standard and V.92 Modem technology into one integrated circuit (IC) to work
in PCs, laptops and handheld devices. It effectively eliminates the need for add-in cards for the
end-users to remain connected to their corporate WLAN or the Internet.
Wireless LAN Card Features
On the WLAN side, the card uses 2.4 GHz Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS)
technology, adaptively adjusting its data rate from 11 Mbps to 5.5/2.0/1.0 Mbps as the signal
strength warrants. Encryption at 64 or 128-bit levels is provided. Both Peer-to-Peer (Ad-Hoc)
and Access Pont (Infrastructure) mode are supported. In addition, its IEEE 802.11b standard
compliance ensures interoperability with other 802.11b compliant wireless LAN (WLAN)
products.
Mini PCI Wireless LAN / Modem Card User's Manual
Modem Card Features
On the Modem side, the FAX/Data modem gives your PC the ability to send and receive FAX
messages over the telephone line like a standard FAX machine. It also allows your PC to
communicate with other personal computers, terminals or BBS's (Bulletin Board Systems)
through the data modem functions.
The communication software, which should be used, depends on the kind of machine that you
are going to communicate with. If you are going to call a FAX machine then you must use the
Fax software. If the machine that you are going to communicate with is a modem then you
must use a data modem communications software.

Wireless LAN Basics
This section conations some Wireless LAN basics to help you better understand how the
product works together to create a wireless network.
Local Area Network (LAN)
Simply put, a LAN is a network that exists in a relatively limited area. A network is two or
more computers connected together sharing files and peripheral devices such as printers.
The Wireless LAN Card allows you to interact with other computers without having to run
cables normally associated with networks. This lets you move your computer around while
staying connected to your network.
There are two ways to use the Wireless LAN Card. One way is to connect directly to one or
more Wireless LAN Card equipped computers, forming an Ad Hoc wireless network. The
second way is to connect to an Access Point that gives you access to an existing wired LAN,
forming an Infrastructure wireless network.
Mini PCI Wireless LAN / Modem Card User's Manual
Ad Hoc Network
The Ad Hoc network offers peer to peer connections between workstations, allowing
communication between computers within range that have an 802.11b DSSS compatible PC
card installed. A wireless Ad Hoc network can also access a wired LAN’s TCP/IP service
(such as e-mail and the Internet) by using a TCP/IP software router on an Ethernet equipped
PowerBook or notebook.
Infrastructure Network
The infrastructure network uses an access point (or several access points) as a gateway,
linking the wireless network to a wired LAN. As a result, portable workstations or desktops on
your wireless network have access to all of the features of your wired LAN including e-mail,
Internet access, network printers and files server.
Roaming
Multiple Access Points can be installed to extend the wireless service coverage area for
seamless wireless access. Within an extended service area, all Access Points and wireless
clients must have the same Service Set Identity (SSID). Roaming among different Access
Points is controlled automatically to maintain the wireless connectivity at all times.
Chapter 2 Installing the Driver and Utility Software
As the Wireless LAN/Modem Card is an embedded solution, your notebook is probably
shipped with its driver and software properly installed. If this is the case, ignore this chapter
and proceed with configuration steps in next chapter.
In case you need to install the driver and software for any reason, follow the instructions
described in this chapter.
System Requirements
To use the Wireless LAN/Modem Card, your computer must meet the following minimum
requirements:

Windows 98/Me/2000/XP

Channel
Encapsulated
An IEEE standard (802.3) for operating 10 Mbps Ethernet networks (LANs) with twisted pair
cabling and a wiring hub.
An internetworking device that seamlessly connects wired and wireless networks. Access Points
combined with a distributed system support the creation of multiple radio cells that enable
roaming throughout a facility.
A network composed solely of stations within mutual communication range of each other (no
Access Point connected).
Basic Service Set. A set of stations controlled by a single coordination function.
A medium used to pass protocol data units that can be used simultaneously in the same volume
of space by other channels of the same physical layer, with an acceptably low frame error ratio
due to mutual interference.
An Ethernet address mode that treats the entire Ethernet packet as a whole and places it inside
an 802.11 frame along with a new header.
91
Mini PCI Wireless LAN / Modem Card User's Manual
ESS
92
Extended Service Set. A set of one or more interconnected Basic Service Sets (BSSs) and
integrated Local Area Networks (LANs) can be configured as an Extended Service Set.
Ethernet
The most widely used medium access method, which is defined by the IEEE 802.3 standard.
Ethernet is normally a shared media LAN; i.e., all the devices on the network segment share
total bandwidth. Ethernet networks operate at 10Mbps using CSMA/CD to run over 10BaseT
cables.
Gateway
A network component that acts as an entrance to another network.
IEEE 802.11
The IEEE 802.xx is a set of specifications for LANs from the Institute of Electrical and
Electronic Engineers (IEEE). Most wired networks conform to 802.3, the specification for
CSMA/CD-based Ethernet networks or 802.5, the specification for token ring networks. 802.11
defines the standard for wireless LANs encompassing three incompatible (non-interoperable)
technologies: Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS), Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum
(DSSS), and Infrared. IEEE standards ensure interoperability between systems of the same type.
Infrastructure
A wireless network centered about an Access Point. In this environment, the Access Point not
only provides communication with the wired network but also mediates wireless network traffic
in the immediate neighborhood.
IP
Internet Protocol. The standard protocol within TCP/IP that defines the basic unit of
information passed across an Internet connection by breaking down data messages into packets,
routing and transporting the packets over network connections, then reassembling the packets at
their destination. IP corresponds to the network layer in the ISO/OSI model.
Glossary
IP Address
An IP address is a 32-bit number that identifies each sender or receiver of information sent
across the Internet. An IP address has two parts: the identifier of a particular network on the
Internet and an identifier of the particular device (which can be a server or a workstation) within
that network.
ISP
Internet Service Provider. An organization that provides access to the Internet. Small ISPs
provide service via modem and ISDN while the larger ones also offer private line hookups (T1,
fractional T1, etc.).
LAN
Local Area Network. A communications network that serves users within a defined
geographical area. The benefits include the sharing of Internet access, files, and equipment, such
as printers and storage devices. Special network cabling (10BaseT) is often used to connect the
PCs together.
NAT
Network Address Translation. The translation of an Internet Protocol address (IP address) used
within one network to a different IP address known within another network. One network is
designated the internal network and the other is the external. The internal network then appears
as one entity to the outside world.

RF, Terms: GHz, MHz, Hz —The international unit for measuring frequency is Hertz (Hz),
equivalent to the older unit of cycles per second. One megahertz (MHz) is one Million-Hertz.
One giga hertz (GHz) is one Billion-Hertz. The standard U.S. electrical power frequency is 60
Hz, the AM broadcast radio frequency band is 0.55–1.6 MHz, the FM broadcast radio frequency
band is 88–108 MHz, and wireless 802.11 LANs operate at 2.4GHz.

Service Set ID. A group name shared by every member of a wireless network. Only client PCs
with the same SSID are allowed to establish a connection.
Subnet Mask
A value that defines whether your computer communicates only within your LAN or
communicates outside of your LAN, where it is routed out to the rest of the Internet. A Subnet
Mask that has the same first three components (for example, 255.255.255.0) is the routing
pattern for a Class C address.
TCP
Transmission Control Protocol. The standard transport level protocol that provides the full
duplex, stream service on which many applications’ protocols depend. TCP allows a process on
one machine to send a stream of data to a process on another. Software implementing TCP
usually resides in the operating system and uses the IP to transmit information across the
network.
WEP
Wired Equivalent Privacy. The optional cryptographic confidentiality algorithm specified by
802.11. The algorithm is being used to provide data confidentiality that is subjectively
equivalent to the confidentiality of a wired LAN medium that does not employ cryptographic
techniques to enhance privacy..
