4. The Program For Setting MagicLAN
4.1 The concept of Profile
- TCP/IP settings for the fixed networks/Wired LAN have no problems, as they do
not deal with the mobility. But in case of mobile equipments such as WLAN
card, when WLAN client has moved from home to Office or vice-versa, the
difficulty for using the old TCP/IP settings arises.
- The concept of profile makes it easy to use the same TCP/IP settings for WLAN
cards regardless of the movement.
- Profile can be selected again with ease if it were saved. Saving the settings for
WLAN and TCP/IP as a Profile, it is easy for user to select and use one of the
saved profiles, especially, it can be used quickly without rebooting your
computer while the settings for TCP/IP is updated.
4.2 Installation Procedure

1. Insert your WLAN card. After clicking on the icon , which is found at the right bottom
