FortiExplorer provides a user-friendly tool that you can use to configure
a FortiWiFi unit over a standard USB connection, rather than using a
console cable or Ethernet connection.
Caution: Do not connect the USB cable until after FortiExplorer
has been installed.
Note: When using FortiExplorer for the first time, ensure the FortiWiFi
unit is using its factory default settings.

FortiExplorer is available for Microsoft Windows XP, Vista, and 7. It is
