Adding Computers to
the Network
After you have connected TransPort, you can add computers to
your wireless AirWay 11 Mbps Network. To add a computer, you
must complete the following steps:
1. Install network card (PCI or PCMCIA)
2. Install 802.11b Adapter driver and software
3. Set up the Internet Gateway for the first computer you add to
the network. You do not need to do this step for subsequent
computers you add.
Note:
You may be asked for your Windows CD-ROM during
software installation. To prevent software conflicts, be sure to
use the same version of Windows that is currently installed on
your computer.
