1. You can open the PROSet Wireless software two different ways:

   • If you are running in Windows XP in default mode, click on Start, select All Programs, locate Intel PROSet Wireless and open Intel PROSet Wireless.

3. The Configure Wireless Settings - umd-secure window opens. Under General Settings, the Profile Name and Wireless Network Name (SSID) should read umd-secure. If these fields are blank or show different names, click Cancel and start over. If these settings are correct click Next.
