User’s Manual for the NETGEAR Super AG Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter WG111U

3-2 Basic Setup

202-10065-01

• Windows XP Home, Windows XP Professional, Windows 2000, Windows ME, or Windows

98SE. Some versions of Windows may ask for the original Windows operating system

installation files to complete the installation of the WG111U driver software.

Note: Some Windows XP systems may experience high CPU usage when using the WG111U. If

this occurs, you should install Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) or install the KB822603 Hot fix,

which fixes the USB 2.0 Host controller driver issue.

Observing Location and Range Guidelines

Computers can connect over wireless networks indoors at a range which varies significantly based

on the physical location of the computer with the NETGEAR Super AG Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter

WG111U. For best results, avoid potential sources of interference, such as:

• Large metal surfaces

•Microwaves

• 2.4 GHz Cordless phones

In general, wireless devices can communicate through walls. However, if the walls are constructed

with concrete, or have metal, or metal mesh, the effective range will decrease if such materials are

between the devices.

Determining Placement of the USB Adapter

You can attach the WG111U Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter directly to a USB port on your computer,

or use the USB cable to extend the range and obtain better wireless reception.
