Installing the
MA101 802.11b Wireless USB Adapter
This chapter describes how to set up your MA101 802.11b Wireless USB Adapter
for wireless connectivity on your Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN).
What You Will Need Before You Begin
You need to verify your computer meets the minimum system requirements and
identify the wireless network configuration settings of the WLAN where you will
connect before you can configure your wireless USB adapter and connect.
Note: Computers can connect over 802.11b wireless networks at a
range of as much as 500 feet or more indoors. With this distance, and
because walls do not always block wireless signals, others outside your
immediate area could access your network. It is important to take
appropriate steps to secure your network from unauthorized access. The
MA101 802.11b Wireless USB Adapter provides highly effective
security features which are covered in “Enabling Basic Wireless
Security Features” on page 29. Deploy the security features appropriate
to your needs.
