2. The conﬁguration program – introduction and operation on Windows 2000/XP

Open the Hama Conﬁguration Program. To do so, click Start -> Programs -> Hama Wireless LAN ->

Hama Wireless LAN Utility.

If the program is already running in the background, you will ﬁnd in the task bar at the bottom right of the

screen:

Click the circled symbol to open the utility

from the task bar. The Hama Wireless LAN

Utility starts with the following screen,

whereby the values in the columns may be

different.

This screen shows all available wireless

networks. The SSID, which is used to

identify WLAN devices in the respective

wireless LAN, the router MAC address

(BSSID), the signal strength, the channel

used, the encryption algorithm and the

authentication and the type of network are

displayed. The lower section of this window

shows the connection status (Connected /

Disconnected). Click Update to search for

wireless networks again.

2.1 Quick conﬁguration

First, select the required network by clicking the corresponding line in the list. The network selected

is highlighted in blue in the list. Now click the Connect button. You are connected to the network if the

selected network is run without encryption and the signal is strong enough. This is indicated by the

green symbol and Connected is shown in the status window.

If the network you selected is encrypted, another window opens in which you can enter the encryption

data. The data must be identical to the router or access point settings. The authentication type and

encryption are generally already selected in accordance with the target network. Enter the code which

must correspond exactly with the code used by the router or access point.

Click Ok to conﬁrm after you make your entries.

If you do not have this code yourself, please contact the person responsible for conﬁguring the router

or access point.

For detailed information on setting encryption, please see under the heading: Setting the wireless LAN

encryption (Software CD).

If you have made these entries successfully, a green symbol is also displayed to indicate the success-

fully connection in the network overview.

For further information on the connection made, open the Status tab. It contains information on the

Connection quality, Signal strength or Interference level.

3. Installation and conﬁguration under Windows

Vista

Before installation, please save any open

documents you may be working on. Then close all

running programs. Insert the CD-ROM provided in

the drive. Usually, the CD starts automatically. If the

menu does not start automatically,

double-click the corresponding CD-ROM drive icon

in My Computer.

3.1 Operation of the Windows Vista conﬁguration program

Click the symbol with the two computer monitors in the task bar with the

left mouse button:

Afterwards, you can establish connections to existing WLAN

networks.

Click “Wireless networks are available” for this purpose. Wait a

minute if this option cannot be selected. Please check if the WLAN

router or Access Point is operational if this does not help.

The found networks are displayed now. Select the correct network

and click “Connect”.

Remark concerning hidden networks: the name is not shown in this

case. Instead of that, it is called “Unnamed Network”. When the connection has been established, you

are asked for the name.

Afterwards, you are mostly asked to enter

the network security key. For reasons of

safety, we advise you against using uncoded

networks.

Click “Connect” for conﬁrmation.

Windows establishes now the connection

to the desired WLAN. Afterwards, you can

store the network and start it automatically

next time. The connection is so automatically

established in future. Finish the conﬁguration

by clicking with the mouse “Close”.

3.2 Setting up an Ad-hoc network

This enables direct connections to another Wireless LAN Client device, e.g. a USB stick or a WLAN PCI

add-in card. No wireless LAN router or Accesspoint is required for this.

If such a network already exists, you can establish a connection with this one as described above.

If it is to be set up a new, so that other users can connect themselves, you have to proceed as descri-

bed below:

Click the symbol with the two computer monitors in the task bar with the

left mouse button:

Click “Connect to a network”, “Set up a

connection or network” and then “Set up

a wireless Ad hoc (computer-to-computer)

network”. Conﬁrm with -> Next -> Next.

In the next window, you are asked to enter

data concerning the network name and the

security type. More information is shown

if you move the mouse cursor towards the

appropriate ﬁeld. Additional remarks concer-

ning the network name and WPA2 security

key. Here, you should only use letters from

A-Z, as well as numbers from 0-9.

Conﬁrm your speciﬁcations with -> Next ->

Close.

4. Conﬁguring the operating system and computer

(Windows)

After you have successfully installed the network

adapter, you still have to install or conﬁgure a protocol.

This protocol governs the data exchange between the

computer and the network. TCP/IP is most common.

Each computer has to be assigned its own address for

the protocol. Automatic address assignment is only

reliable if a DHCP server exists in the network, e.g. a

router or access point. If you have one of these devices

with a DHCP function, you should leave the setting on

“Get automatically”.

Proceed as follows to check the settings on your PC:

Start -> Settings -> Control panel -> Network

connections

Select the connection (network adapter) via which your

PC is connected to the router, e.g. “LAN connection”.

When you right-click the corresponding connection,

the following screen is displayed when you select

Properties.

Select the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) entry in the list and click Properties.

Select Optain an IP address automatically

and Optain DNS server address automa-

tically, if there is a DHCP server in your

network. Conﬁrm by clicking OK, and again

in the subsequent window.

Your PC is now conﬁgured such that the

router assigns the IP address automatically.

If you do not have a device with an integra-

ted DHCP server, you must assign the IP

addresses manually. The following example

describes basic setup using manual address

assignment. For local networks, special

address ranges are provided which are not

transmitted over the internet. As an example,

a range that you can use for your network

is 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.254. The ﬁrst PC is

assigned the address 192.168.1.1, the second

192.168.1.2, the third 192.168.1.3, etc.

Select Use the following IP address and enter your IP address in accordance with the sample.

1.PC = IP address 192.168.1.1 Subnet mask 255.255.255.0

2.PC = IP address 192.168.1.2 Subnet mask 255.255.255.0

Click Ok to conﬁrm your entries.

5. Uninstalling the driver and conﬁguration program on Windows

Select Start => Settings => Control Panel => Software

To do so, select Hama Wireless Utility and click Remove. At the next prompt, click Remove completely.

Remove the device from your computer when prompted to do so. Afterwards click OK.

The program is now deleted from your computer.

After the software is removed, you may have to restart the system. Save all open documents and close

all programs before restarting the PC.

6. Installing the driver and conﬁguration program on MAC OS X

Before installation, please save any open documents you may be working on. Then close all running

programs. Ensure that you have administrator authorisations to enable you to install the driver correctly.

Connect the Hama WLAN USB stick to a free USB 2.0 port. Then start your Apple computer. After the

operating system has loaded completely and the desktop is complete, insert

the enclosed driver CD-ROM in your drive. An icon with the CD-ROM then ap-

pears on your desktop. Double-click the icon and select the MAC driver directory in the Finder window.

This directory contains the DMG ﬁle required for installation. Double click the DMG ﬁle to activate the

image.

After you activate the image, select the correct directory for your installed MAC OS X Version and then

double click the corresponding PKG ﬁle. Installation is now started.

Select your hard drive on which you want to install the driver and the conﬁguration program. You must

then restart the system.

7. Conﬁguring the operating system and computer on MAC OS X

After you have installed the driver, you must

conﬁgure the network environment in

accordance with the new situation. To do so,

proceed as follows.

Click the Apple symbol in the upper menu

bar and select the Environment menu item.

Select the “Network” setting menu item. The

following window opens. Click OK to conﬁrm
