a step-by-step instruction for starting the devices. After installation of hard-
ware, drivers and the AirLancer software, you have to set up the access to a
Wireless LAN. The description of this configuration step can be found for both
AirLancers in chapter 3.

Properties
The AirLancer WLAN adapters are compliant to the IEEE 802.11a and IEEE
802.11g standards, and are thus excellent suitable for notebook users who
need a maximum of flexibility and performance. The switch between the radio
standards can be made as desired automatically, and enables at any time the
fastest possible connection. So for example the connection to a company net-
work with up to 54 Mbps can be made with the IEEE 802.11g or IEEE 802.11a
standard, while on journeys the compatibility to public hot spots is ensured
with up to 11 Mbps transfer rate according to IEEE 802.11b.
