4. Verify wireless connectivity to your network.
Verify connectivity by using a browser such as Netscape or Internet Explorer to connect to the
Internet, or check for file and printer access on your network.
You can check the status bar in the configuration utility for the current connection status.
Note: If you cannot connect, see the Chapter 5, “Troubleshooting. Also, for problems with
accessing network resources, the Windows Client and File and Print Sharing software might
not be installed and configured properly on your computers. Please refer to “Preparing Your
Computers for TCP/IP Networking” on page C-1.
Connecting to Another PC in Ad-hoc Mode
The peer-to-peer setting of the WPN111 uses Ad-Hoc mode. Ad-Hoc mode is an 802.11
networking framework in which devices or computers communicate directly with each other,
without the use of an access point. For example, this mode is used when two Windows computers
are configured with file and print sharing enabled and you want to exchange files directly between
them.
How to Configure an Ad-hoc Mode Profile
Note: Ad-hoc mode will not work using DHCP settings. Ad-hoc mode requires static IP addresses
(such as
192.168.0.1). For instructions on setting up static IP addresses on a Windows PC, refer
to the PC Networking Tutorial included on the NETGEAR RangeMax™ Wireless USB 2.0
Adapter WPN111 Resource CD.
Follow the instructions below to configure an Ad-hoc mode profile.
1. Run the WPN111 Configuration Utility.
a. Make sure the WPN111 software is installed and the WPN111 is connected to your PC.
b. Open the configuration utility by clicking on the WPN111 icon in the Windows system
tray.
c. Click the Settings tab.
d. Select Computer-to-computer (Ad-hoc) for the Network Type.
e. Enter the SSID for the Ad-Hoc network.
f. Click Apply.
