Connect to a Profile
When you are in range of a wireless network that has a matching profile you are automatically connected
to that network. If a network with a lower priority profile is also in range you can force the connection to
that lower profile. This is achieved from Intel PROSet/Wireless or from the Taskbar icon.
Manually connect to a profile from Intel PROSet/Wireless:
1. Double-click the Taskbar icon to open the Intel PROSet/Wireless main window.
2. Click Profiles to open the Profiles list.
3. Select the profile from the Profile list.
4. Click Connect. Remember that the connection is only made if the wireless network is in range.
Manually connect to a profile from the Taskbar:
1. Right-click the Intel PROSet/Wireless connection Taskbar icon.
