The WCB-G03H Wireless Cardbus Adapter has two LEDs: POWER and ACTIVITY.
POWER
ACTIVITY
Figure 1-2 LDEs
LED Activity What that means
LEDs are flashing alternatively The WCB-G03H is searching for a wireless
network connection.
LEDs are flashing in unison The WCB-G03H has made a valid wireless
network connection, and there is activity on the link.
LEDs are flashing in unison, but dimly The WCB-G03H has made a valid wireless
network connection, but there is no activity on the link. This could be caused by an Access Point that is functioning, but not connected to the wired network.

2 Wireless Basics
Wireless products are based on industry standards to provide easy-to-use and compatible high-speed wireless connectivity within your home or business. S trictly adhering to the 802.11b and 802.11g standards, our wireless family of products will allow you to access the data you want, when and where you want it. No longer will you be limited to one location or forced to run new wiring through your home or office. You will be able to enjoy the freedom that wireless networking delivers.
A wireless local area network (WLAN) is a cellular computer network that transmits and receives dat a with radio signals instead of wires. Wireless LANs are used increasingly in both h ome and office environments, and public areas such as airports, coffee shops and universities. Innovative ways to utilize WLAN technology are helping people to work and communicate more efficiently. Increased mobility and the absence of cabling and other fixed infrastructure have proven to be beneficial for many users.
Wireless users can use the same applications they use on a wired network. Wireless adapter cards used on laptop and desktop systems, support the same protocols as Ethernet adapter cards.
Under many circumstances, it may be desirable for mobile network devices to link to a conventional Ethernet LAN in order to use servers, printers or an Internet connection supplied through the wired LAN. A Wirele ss Access Point (AP) is a device used to provide this link.
