Chapter 3. Using The Utility
The Configuration & Monitor Utility is a powerful application that helps you to configure the
Fast-VNET card and monitor the statistics of the communication. Unlike the standard
method of configuring the adapter via the operating system utilities (e.g. Control Panel),
this application permits the dynamic modification of the configuration parameters while the
adapter is operating. It also offers some more configuration options. Gigabyte offers the
Configuration & Monitor Utility for Windows 98/98SE/Me, and Windows 2000/XP. It
appears as an icon on the system tray of Windows every time the adapter is running (see
Figure 3-1). You can open it by double-clicking on this icon.
Figure 3-1. The icon of the Configuration & Monitor Utility
Note: Please keep in mind that the Configuration & Monitor Utility can be used to change
the above configuration parameters when the adapter is active. When the adapter is not in
use, please use the Control Panel method.

Info
The Info tab shows you the current link status of the wireless LAN adapter and the
reachable assess points and the wireless LAN adapter. In the middle of the screen there is
information about the status of the communication (the BSSID of the access point to which
the adapter is associated, signal strength, and link quality).
Figure 3-2.
Current link status of the wireless LAN adapter
Other items in the table are the detailed information about the link status, which are
available only when the wireless LAN adapter is connected to an access point or other
wireless LAN adapter.
SSID: Network name.
BSSID: MAC address of the base station.
Channel: The current channel used by the wireless LAN adapter.
TxRate: The current transmission rate used by the wireless LAN adapter.
Reachable Access Points / Stations:
This item will show you all of the 802.11 access points or wireless LAN adapters in your
wireless environment. The icon in the front of every item represents an access point or a
wireless LAN adapter. You can add a network easily by clicking on the desired SSID.
Signal: It shows the signal intensity of the currently connected base station.
Ch: The current channel used by the wireless LAN adapter.

A typical screen of the application in Infrastructure mode is shown in Figure 3-4. The
configuration parameters are shown at the top of the screen (Operating Mode, Channel,

Encryption
By choosing this option in any of the two modes, you can set four different WEP keys and
specify which one of them to use. First, either enable or disable encryption from the
appropriate “Encryption” field (see Figure 3-5 below). If you decide to use encryption, you
can choose any of the available WEP keys (1 to 4). You also have the option to select the
WEP mode (Mandatory/Optional). If you select “Mandatory”, then not only WEP will be
used, but also any other station needs to use WEP encryption in order to establish a
communication with your station. This requirement is in line with the IEEE 802.11b
standard. If, on the other hand, you choose “Optional”, then your station can
communicate with every other station regardless if they use WEP or not. Please keep in
mind that the WEP keys must be in HEX format. Finally, you have the option to select
whether Open System, Shared Key, or Auto authentication will be used. In order to take
effect the changes you wish to make, click the “Submit” button at the bottom of the
screen.
