3 T ABLE OF CONTENTS 1 Initial Setup....................................................................................................... 4 1.1 Installing the Driver and Utility .................................................................... 4 1.
4 1 INITIAL SETUP The following software installation procedure represents Windows 7. Instructions and screen images are similar for all current Windows operating systems. NOTE: Before proceeding, uninstall any wireless adapter drivers or utilities that may have been previously loaded onto your PC.
5 5. Click Next again to begin the installation of the driver and utility . A Setup Status screen (below) will display to indicate the progress of the installation.
6 6. A warning about an unveried publisher or missing logo testing may display . Select “Install this driver software anyway” (or “Continue Anyway” in XP) to proceed. 7. When the Complete screen displays, select “Y es, I want to restart my computer now” and click Finish .
7 1.2 Connecting to a Wireless Access Point Y ou have two options for connecting to a wireless access point (AP): • T o take advantage of all the extra features and functions available in the Manhattan conguration utililty (which you just installed with the driver), follow the steps below in Section 1.
8 3. Input the security setting required for the wireless network you are trying to connect to and click OK to start the network connection. 1.2.2 Using the Windows AutoCong (Zero Conguration) T ool As mentioned in Section 1.
9 2. Click Connect to a network under “Network and Sharing Center .” 3. Click the access point you want to use if it’s shown, then click Connect .
10 4. If it’s an unnamed access point — that is, if the SSID (service set identication) of this wireless access point is hidden — you’ll be prompted to enter its name, which must be identical to the SSID setting of the wireless AP you’re connecting to.
11 6. If you can see the screen below , the connection between your computer and wireless access point has been successfully established. Click Close to start the network connection.
12 2.1 General The initial utility screen that displays is General. As all the conguration screens do (Prole, Available Network, etc.), this screen presents you with several navigation and reference options. Refresh: Select to update the list of adapters in the network.
13 2.2 Prole This section is for managing the networks you connect to frequently . A vailable Prole(s): This shows the preferred networks for the wireless connection. Y ou can add, remove, edit and duplicate the preferred networks or set one of the networks as the default connection.
14 This is a computer-to-computer (ad hoc) network; wireless access points are not used: This option should not be activated in a standard home environment . Only if you indeed wish to create a wireless peer-to-peer network do you need to activate this option.
15 Data Encryption: Options are “WEP ,” “TKIP” and “AES.” Select the correct value for the wireless network you wish to connect to. ASCII / Passphrase: These two options only apply to WEP encryption.
16 A vailable Network(s): This list shows all information of the available wireless networks within the range of your adapter (SSID, Channel, Encryption, etc.). T o connect to any network on the list, select it and double-click. Refresh: Click to update the Available Networks list.
17 stop reading this section now because everything that follows would not be applicable to your network. 2.5.1 PIN Input Cong (PIN) The rst method uses a PIN code to connect to the wireless network. 1. Connect to your wireless router ’s conguration interface and open the section that allows you to set up WPS.
18 4. Immediately after that, on the Manhattan wireless utility screen, click PIN Input Cong (PIN) . Y ou’ll be asked whether or not you want to specify an access point manually . Click No . The wireless utility starts searching for wireless networks with a matching PIN code.
19 So, you may ask, if PBC involves pressing physical buttons, then why does the Manhattan wireless utility have an option for a push-button setup? The answer is simple. The same Manhattan WLAN utility is included with the PCI WLAN Card and the tiny Wireless 150N Micro Adapter .
20 2.6 Using the Wireless Adapter as an Access Point Y our Manhattan wireless adapter supports three main operational modes: Station, Access Point and Virtual Wi-Fi (a combination of the rst two modes). Y ou can switch between the rst two modes using the mode selector menu in the wireless utility .
21 Network Name (SSID): Every wireless network broadcasts an identication name, allowing wireless clients such as laptops, smartphones or tablet PCs to see which network they are connecting to. Enter the name of the wireless network you wish to create.
22 Channel: Every wireless network operates on a specic channel. In the U.S., your wireless network can be set to channels 1–1 1; otherwise, you can use channels 1–13 (1–14 in Japan).
23 The main conguration screen has two additional options as indicated by the red and blue arrows below . IP Address: This is the IP address which your newly created access point uses.
24 2.6.2 Virtual W i-Fi Mode The setup of Virtual Wi-Fi is nearly identical to that of Access Point mode. The main differences are that a) you activate this mode while the wireless adapter is in Station mode; and b) that your wireless adapter operates as a wireless client and wireless AP at the same time.
