Unlike the standard method of configuring the card via the operating system utilities, this application permits the dynamic modification of the configuration parameters while the card is operating. It also offers more configuration options. We offer the Wireless LAN Configuration Utility for Windows® 98SE/Me/2000/XP. Mini-PCI WLAN equipment has been tested and found to comply with limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in residential installations. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy, and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
