4.3 Profile Management
Network Type: Indicates whether the current activated network type is
Infrastructure or Ad Hoc mode.
Security Mode: Indicates current connected network’s security mode.
Network Name : Indicates current connected network’s name.
New: To create new profile.
Modify: To edit settings of chosen profile.
Remove: To remove the chosen profile from the list.

Import: To import a pre-set profile (pre-saved as a Config File *.prf)
Export: To export the chosen profile, so you can save the profile as a Config File
(*.prf) for future use.
Scan: To scan all available network in vicinity.
Order Profiles: To place the order of preferred profiles.
4.3.1 Creating or Modifying a Configuration Profile
1. To add a New configuration profile, click New on the Profile Management tab. To
modify a configuration profile, select the configuration from the Profile list and
click the Modify button.
2. The Profile Management dialog box displays the General, Security and
Advanced tabs.
28
3. Edit the fields in the General tab to configure the configuration profile.
Profile Name: Identifies the configuration profile. This name should be
unique. Profile names are not case sensitive.
Client Name : Identifies the client machine.
Network Names (SSIDs): The IEEE 802.11 wireless network name. This
field has a maximum limit of 32 characters. Configure up to three SSIDs
(SSID1, SSID2, SSID3).
4. Edit the fields in the Security tab to configure the configuration profile.
WPA/WPA2: Enables the use of Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA).
29
n
WPA Passphrase: Enables WPA Passphrase security. Click on the
Configure button and fill in the WPA Passphrase.
802.1x: Enables 802.1x security. This option requires IT administration.
Pre-Shared Key (Static WEP): Enables the use of pre-shared keys that are
defined on both the access point and the station.
None: No security (not recommended).
5. Edit the fields in the Advanced tab to configure the configuration profile.
n Transmit Power Level: Selects the transmit power level for 802.11b/g in mW.
Actual transmit power may be limited by regulatory domain or hardware
limitations.
n Power Save Mode: Specify:
ü Maximum mode: causes the access point to buffer incoming messages for
the wireless adapter. The adapter up periodically polls the access point to
see if any messages are waiting.
ü Normal mode: uses maxim when retrieving a large number of packets, then
switches back to power save mode after retrieving the packets.
ü Off: turns power saving off, thus powering up the wireless adapter
continuously for a short message response time.
n Network Type: Specifies the network as either Infrastructure or Ad Hoc.
n 802.11b Preamble: Specifies the preamble setting in 802.11b. The default
setting is Short & Long (access point mode), which allows both short and
long headers in the 802.11b frames. The adapter can only use short radio
headers if the access point supports and uses them. Set to Long Only to
30
override allowing short frames.
n Wireless Mode: Specifies 2.4GHz 54Mbps, 2.4GHz 11Mbps, or Super G
operation in an access point network. The wireless adapter must match the
wireless mode of the access point it associates to.
n Wireless Mode when Starting Ad Hoc Network: Specifies 2.4GHz
54/11Mbps, to start an Ad Hoc network if no matching network name is found
after scanning all available modes. This mode also allows selection of the
channel the wireless adapter uses. The channels available depend on the
regulatory domain. If the adapter finds no other ad hoc adapters, this selection
specifies which channel with the adapter starts the Ad Hoc network with. The
wireless adapter must match the wireless mode of the access point it associates
to.
n 802.11 Authentication Mode: Select what mode the wireless adapter uses to
authenticate to an access point:
ü Auto: causes the adapter to attempt authentication using shared, but
switches it to open authentication if shared fails.
ü Open: enables an adapter to attempt authentication regardless of its WEP
settings. It will only associate with the access point if the WEP keys on both
the adapter and the access point match.
ü Shared: only allows the adapter to associate with access points that have
the same WEP key.
n Preferred APs: User can set up to five preferred APs.

With Auto Profile Selection enabled, the wireless adapter scans for available
networks. The highest priority profile with the same SSID as a found network is
used to connect to the network. On a failed connection, the client adapter tries
with the next highest priority profile.
NOTE! When Auto Profile Selection is enabled by checking Auto Select Profiles
on the Profile Management tab, the client adapter scans for an available
network. The profile with the highest priority and the same SSID as one of
the found networks is the one that is used to connect to the network. If the
connection fails, the client adapter tries the next highest priority profile that
matches the SSID, and so on.

6. Network Application
This section consists of the network applications of 802.11g USB 2.0 Adapter,
including:
1. To survey the network neighborhood
2. To share your folder with your network member(s)
3. To share your printer with your network member(s)
4. To access the shared folder(s)/file(s) of your network members(s)
5. To use the shared printer(s) of your network member(s)
In fact, the network applications of WLAN 802.11g USB 2.0 Adapter are the same as
they are in a wired network environment. You may refer to the following 3
examples of Surveying the Network Neighborhood, File Sharing and Using the
Shared Folder.
6.1 Surveying the Network Neighborhood
When multiple base stations are up and running in your wireless network, you can use
the procedure described below to display the other computers:
1. Double-click My Network Places to display all stations in your Microsoft
Windows Network Group.
2. To display other workgroups in the network environment, double-click Entire
Network.
3. If there is a second network operating system running in your network
environment (for example a Novell NetWare network), the “Entire Network”
window will also display available servers running under the second network
operating system. If you click on these servers, you may be asked to enter your
user name and password that applies to the other network operating system. If
you cannot find it, verify whether the other wireless computers are:
n Powered up and logged on to the network.
n Configured to operate with identical Microsoft Network settings concerning:
ü Networking Protocol.
ü Wireless Network Name.
To enable the sharing of Internet access, you should set your WLAN mode as
“Infrastructure” and connect to the access point.
44
6.2 File Sharing
802.11g USB 2.0 Adapter allows the sharing of files between computers that are
logged onto the same wireless network. If you want to share your folder “My
Documents” with other computers of the wireless network, please highlight the
folder “My Documents” and drag it to Shared Documents folder.
Sharing files in the IEEE802.11g wireless network will be like sharing files on a
wired LAN.
45
6.3 Using the Shared Folder
If you would like to access a shared folder stored in other stations of same network,
please follow the process below:
1. Double-click the “My Network Places” icon, and then double-click the computer
where the shared folder is located.
2. Double-click the folder you want to connect to.
3. Now you may open the needed file(s).
NOTE! If a password is required, the Windows will prompt a password column to
you. Then you need to enter the password that had been assigned to this
shared folder.
