potential sources of interference, such as the following:

• Large metal surfaces

• Microwave ovens

• 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 decreases if such materials are

between the devices.

Installation with Custom Setup

With Custom setup you can specify where the files are installed. You can also choose whether or

not you want to install the Smart Wizard.

• Custom installation with the Smart Wizard. Select either Configure Manually or Configure

Automatically. The Smart Wizard provides a complete and easy-to-use set of tools to:

– View details about wireless networks in your area.

– Manage your network connections and connect securely using Push 'N' Connect (WPS).

– Configure wireless settings for your wireless-N USB adapter.

– Save your wireless network settings in profiles.

• Custom installation excluding the Smart Wizard. You can choose not to install the Smart

wizard and to use only the Windows Utility to install and manage your wireless network. If

you choose to do this, you will not be able to use the Smart Wizard to configure your wireless-

N USB adapter or to connect to a wireless network.

Installing the Software and Adapter

To install the wireless-N USB adapter with custom setup:

1. Insert the Resource CD. If the CD main page does not display, browse the files on the CD

and double-click Autorun.exe.

2. Click Install the Software. The Software Update Check screen displays.

Note: For Express installation, see the NETGEAR Wireless-N 150 USB Adapter
