- 5 - G. The system will automatically detect SP906GK and display the “ Hardware Inst allation ” screen. Click “ Continue Anyway ” to continue.
- 6 - 3 Configuration Utility The Configuration Utility is a powerful application that hel ps you configure SP906GK and monitor the link status and the statistics during the communication process. If SP906GK is installed successfully, the confi guration utility will autom atically pop up.
- 7 - Right click the icon to find th e items in configur ation ut ility for you t o perform. z Launch Config Utilities Select “ Open Config Utility ” to open the Confi guration Utility tool. z Use Zero Configuration as Configuration Utility z Select “ About ” to describe the Wireless Card information.
- 8 - B. Click “ Advanced ”. C. Uncheck “ Use Windows to configure my w i reless network settings ” to enable the utility for the card. Note: If “ Wireless Zero Configuration ” is enabled, you can onl y configure the advance setting or check the lin k status and statistics from the conf iguration utility of the card.
- 9 - 3.1 Site Survey When you open the Configuration Utility, t he system will scan all the channels to find all the access points/statio ns within the accessible range of SP906GK and automatically connect you to the wireless dev i ce with the gr eatest signal strength.
- 10 - Add/Delete/E dit/Activate a profile. Parameter Description Profile List The profile list displays all the profiles and their relative settings including Profile Name , SSID . This sign indicates the activated profile is connecting. This sign indicates the activated profile is disconnected .
- 11 - 3.2.1 Configure the Profile 3.2.1.1 Base Configuration Parameter Description Profile Name Define a recognizable profile name for you to identify the different networks. SSID The SSID (up to 32 printabl e ASCII characters) is the unique name identified in a WLAN.
- 12 - 3.2.1.2 Wireless network security Parameter Description Network Authentication T ype This setting has to be consistent with the wireless networks that SP906GK intends to connect. Open System – No authentication is needed in the wireless network.
- 13 - password in their access point or gateway , as well as in each wireless station in the network. WP A-PSK takes over automatically from that point, keeping unauthorized users that don't have the matching password from joining the network, while encrypting the data traveling bet ween authorized devices.
- 14 - 802.1x Setting When you set the Authentication T ype to Open, Shared, WP A or WP A2, you can also enable IEEE 802.1x setting to use the authentication server or certification server to au thenticate client users. WP A Pre-Shared Key The WP A-PSK key c an be from 8 to 64 characters and can be letters or numbers.
- 15 - The IEEE 802.1X specification describes a protocol used for authenticating both clients and servers on a network. The authentication al gorithms and methods are those provided by the Extensible.
- 16 - 3.2.1.3 802.1x Setting-Cert ification Parameter Description Authentication T ype The EAP authenticat ion protocols this card supports are listed below . This setting has to be consistent with the wireless APs or Routers that SP906GK intends to connect.
- 17 - Session Resumption Select from “Dis abled”, “Reauthentication”, “Roaming”, “SameSSID” and “Always” options when you want to recover the session in different st atus. Identity Name the server fo r server identification. Password Enter the password for server identification.
- 18 - Allow Intermediate Certificates When the server designates an issuer as a trusted root authority, it places the iss uer's self-signed certificate, which contains the issuer's public key, into the trusted root certification authority certificate stor e of the host computer.
- 19 - 3.3 Advanced Parameter Description PSM (Power Save Mode) The power savi ng function is only available when the network type is in Infrastructure. None – Disable the Power Save mode. Min – SP906GK will always set in Minimum mode. Max – SP906GK will always set in Maximum mode Wireless Mode SP906GK can be comp atible with both 802.
- 20 - Preamble The preamble defines t he length of the CRC block for communication among wireless devices. This option is only active in the Ad Hoc network.
- 21 - 3.4 Status From the “ Statu s ” option, you can view all the informa tion of the networ k you are connected to. Parameter Description Manufacturer Display the Chip-set manufacturer . NDIS Driver V ersion Display Current Driver version. Short Radio Header Display the Short Radio Header .
- 22 - 3.5 Statistics This option enables you to view the statis tic information of the connection, including transmit statistics and receive statistics.
- 23 - compressing the data and decreasing the waiti ng time for sending the next data to the Routers or APs. This feat ure (known as Turbo Mode) enables higher throughput than IEEE 802.
