Insert the 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card into your laptop computer*
Congratulations! You have finished installing your hardware and your drivers! The
802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card will connect to an existing wireless network or other wireless networking products in the area.
You should now see a small icon for the Configuration Utility in the system tray by your clock on your computer
desktop. The Configuration Utility is used to change or verify the configuration information that relates to your 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card. The Configuration Utility icon will be colored to indicate the status of your wireless network: red for disconnected or connected with poor quality, yellow for roaming, and green for connected with good quality.
Turn on your laptop computer. Type your password if you are prompted to do so.
Note: Your product number is USR5410. It is very important that you have your serial number written down before you install the 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card.

Note: Be sure to find out what letter your CD-ROM drive uses before you begin installing your new product. You will need to know this to properly install your software.
Note: During the Installation procedure, you may be prompted for your Windows Operating system CD-ROM. Make sure you have it available in case you need it.
Locate an available PC Card slot and fully insert the 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card. PC Card slots are typically on the side of laptops. You should hear a beep when the 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card is fully inserted and detected.
When Windows detects the new hardware, click Next. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation procedure. If you are prompted, restart your computer.
Note: If you are prompted at any time for your Windows Operating System CD­ROM, remove the U.S. Robotics Installation CD-ROM and insert your Windows CD­ROM into the CD-ROM drive. When all of the files are copied, remove the Windows CD-ROM, and reinsert the U.S. Robotics Installation CD-ROM.
You must now configure each computer that has a 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card in order to share Internet connectivity, files, and a printer. Refer to the User Guide on the Installation CD-ROM for this information.
802.11g Adhoc mode is used for peer-to-peer network configurations. Infrastructure mode is used to connect to a Wireless Access Point. Each 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card in the wireless network must have the correct mode selected within the Configuration Utility.
For troubleshooting and technical support information, refer to the other side of this
Guide or to the User Guide on the U.S. Robotics Installation CD-ROM.

Troubleshooting
My computer does not recognise the 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card.
Possible Solution:
The 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card may not be fully inserted into the PC Card slot.
I am unable to communicate with an Access Point or Wireless Router.
Possible Solution:
Be sure that each 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card that you want to connect to the wireless network is set to Infrastructure mode within the Configuration Utility. If your 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Cards are not set to Infrastructure mode, they will not be able to communicate with an Access Point or Wireless Router.
Possible Solution:
Ensure that you are contacting the correct Access Point by verifying the MAC address.
Possible Solution:
Ensure that the correct Authentication Mode and WEP encryption key are being used. If you changed the settings in the configuration of the Access Point, you must also change the settings of every 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card attached to this network. The settings of the 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Cards must match the new settings of the Access Point. If you are still experiencing difficulties, reset all of your Wireless Access Points and wireless network adapters to the default settings and try again.
Possible Solution:
Ensure that you can connect to the Wireless Access Point and that the BSSID shows the MAC address of the Access Point you want to communicate with.
Possible Solution:
Ensure that the Wireless Configuration Utility is installed for your 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card and that the Wireless Configuration Utility detects your 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card.
Possible Solution:
If you are not using a U.S. Robotics Wireless Access Point, ensure that you can connect to the Access Point and that the preamble mode is set correctly. The default setting is Long.
I received a message that my laptop computer shares a name with or there was an IP address conflict with another computer on the wireless network.
Possible Solution:
Each computer on the wireless network must have a unique name and IP address. Refer to your computer’s documentation to see how to change the name or the IP address of your computer.
I am unable to establish a wireless connection with my 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card.
Possible Solution:
Verify that the 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card is properly installed. If you continue to experience problems, uninstall the 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card and repeat the installation procedure.
Possible Solution:
If you are attempting a peer-to-peer connection, verify that each wireless adapter is set to 802.11 Adhoc mode. If you are using a Wireless Access Point, verify that each wireless adapter is set to Infrastructure mode.
My 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card does not see my Access Point in the list when I scan for it.
Possible Solution:
If you create a wireless connection with the 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card but are experiencing poor link quality, check the positioning of the 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card. Long distances, multiple floors, or steel or concrete walls can diminish the link quality. If possible, reposition the 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card to reduce the effect of any of these obstacles. In addition, check any physical connections between the Access Point and your modem, router, hub, LAN, or switch.
Possible Solution:
If your Access Point is not broadcasting an SSID, it will not appear during a scan by your 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card. The client will need to be manually configured.
I accidentally clicked Wireless Turbo PC Card.
Possible Solution:
Remove and reinsert the Installation CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive. Repeat Step 1 in the installation procedure.
The software installation procedure did not begin when I inserted the Installation CD-ROM.
Possible Solution:
Some programs may keep the autolaunch feature of the Installation CD-ROM from beginning. Close any open applications and reinsert the Installation CD-ROM. If the Installation CD-ROM interface does not run automatically, click Windows ROM drive uses a different letter, type that letter in place of “D.”

The 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card cannot communicate with other computers linked via Wireless in the Infrastructure configuration.
Possible Solution:
• Ensure that each computer in the wireless network is powered on.
• Ensure that each 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card is configured on the same operating radio channel. If the IDs are different, change each 802.11g Wireless Turbo PC Card within the LAN to the new radio channel.
• Ensure TCP/IP is installed. Ensure you are a part of the same domain or workgroup. Ensure that you are automatically obtaining the IP address or that you have a correct IP address and subnet mask. Reset the Wireless Access Point and restart the computer that has a connectivity issue.
• Ensure that you have some files available for sharing.
