Adding Computers to the Network 15
Installing the Network Card and
TransPort Software
After you have installed the network card into your computer,
Windows will detect the new card and the Add New Hardware
Wizard appears. The Wizard walks you though the process of
finding and installing a driver for the 802.11 adapter.
Note:
This procedure describes installation with the AirWay network card
and CD-ROM. To set up your client computers using non-AirWay
802.11 adapters, see “Installation with Non-Airway Network
Adapters” on page 19.
Before you install your network software, you must have your
Internet service provider supply you with information about your
Internet connection. You need to know the type of Internet Gateway
you have. You have three options: PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol
over Ethernet), DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), and
setting the IP address yourself. For a complete description of these
options, see the Internet Gateway information on page 17.
On the Add New Hardware Wizard window, click Next twice.
Insert the AirWay CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive.
Note:
Make sure that the CD-ROM drive option is selected. If not,
click the box to select it.
Click Next twice. Windows copies the files needed for the
adapter. Wait until the Finish button appears on the Wizard
window.
Click Finish.
When the System Settings Change window appears, click Ye s
to restart your computer. Once your computer restarts, you will
set up the adapter.
