Appendix A: Wireless Adapter Configuration

Now that you have installed the drivers for your wireless adapter, you must 
configure it to work with the 2Wire gateway. A wireless network requires a network 
name (SSID) and an encryption key to operate. Every 2Wire wireless gateway 
comes with a unique network name and encryption key printed on the bottom of 
the unit.

1.

With the 2Wire Wireless Installation CD in your CD-ROM drive, click 

Run

 from 

the Windows Start button. In the 

Open

 field, enter D:\setup.exe and click 

OK

.

If your CD-ROM drive is not located on D:, substitute the appropriate letter (for 
example, E:\setup.exe).

2.

When the Driver and Utilities program page displays, click the 

Configure 2Wire 

Wireless Adapter 

button.
