I inserted the Utility & Driver CD-ROM into my computer's CD-ROM Drive and 

the installation menu does not appear automatically. What should I do?

If the window does not appear automatically, click 

Start

, click 

Run

, and type 

D:\autorun

 where "

D

" in "D:\autorun.exe" is the letter assigned to your CD-ROM 

Drive, and then press the ENTER key on your keyboard.

I completed all the steps in the quick installation guide, but my Wireless PC 

Adapter is not connecting to my access point. What should I do?

First, verify that the Network Name (

SSID

) matches your wireless router or 

access point's Network Name (

SSID

).  Second, please check with your network 

administrator for security key in order to access a secured wireless access point or 
router. Please refer to the User's Guide for more information regarding wireless 
network security.  Third, check your TCP/IP properties to ensure that Obtain an IP 
address automatically is selected. Fourth, double-click the Wireless Configuration 
Utility icon, click Site Survey and then click Refresh.  Check to see if there are any 
available wireless networks listed.

Windows is unable to recognize my hardware. What should I do?

Make sure your computer meets the minimum requirements as specified in 

Section 1 of this quick installation guide. Also, you must install the wireless 
configuration utility BEFORE you physically install your network card. Lastly, move 
the Wireless Adapter to a different PCI/PC Card Slot.

I cannot open the wireless configuration utility. What should I do?

Access your device manager to make sure the adapter is installed properly. If 

you see a networking device with a yellow question mark or exclamation point, you 
will need to reinstall the device and/or the drivers. To access your device manager, 
right-click My Computer, click Properties, click the Hardware tab, and then click 
Device Manager.

If you still encounter problems or have any questions regarding the TEW-641PC/
TEW-643PI, please refer to the User's Guide included on the Utility & Driver CD-ROM or 
contact TRENDnet's Technical Support Department.
