Chapter 2 Installing the Driver and Utility Software
This chapter describes the first-time installation of the driver and software for the Wireless
LAN Card. Proper driver installation is to allow the device to operate on your host computer
while the utility software, a Windows program, is to help you configure and monitor your
Wireless LAN Card.
Note: As Mini PCI model is an integrated Wireless LAN Card solution, your laptop computer
is probably shipped with its driver and software properly installed. If this is the case, ignore
this chapter and proceed with the configuration steps in the next chapter.
In case you need to re-install the driver and software for any reason, we recommend that you
remove any previously installed driver and software from your system first. Refer to the
section “Chapter 6 Uninstalling the Wireless LAN Card” for the instructions on how to
remove previous driver releases.
