NOTE: If you do not see the network you want to connect to, click Open Network and

Sharing Center, and then click Set up a new connection or network. A list of options is

displayed. You can choose to manually search for and connect to a network or to set up a new

network connection.

After the connection is made, place the mouse pointer over the network icon in the notification area,

at the far right of the taskbar, to verify the name and status of the connection.

NOTE: The functional range (how far your wireless signals travel) depends on WLAN

implementation, router manufacturer, and interference from other electronic devices or structural

barriers such as walls and floors.

More information about using a WLAN is available through the following resources:

● Information from your ISP and the manufacturer's instructions included with your wireless router

and other WLAN equipment

●

Information and Web site links provided in Help and Support

For a list of public WLANs near you, contact your ISP or search the Web. Web sites that list public

WLANs include Cisco Internet Mobile Office Wireless Locations, Hotspotlist, and Geektools. Check

with each public WLAN location for cost and connection requirements.

For additional information on connecting your computer to a corporate WLAN, contact your network

administrator or IT department.

Roaming to another network

When you move your computer within range of another WLAN, Windows attempts to connect to that

network. If the attempt is successful, your computer is automatically connected to the new network. If

Windows does not recognize the new network, follow the same procedure you used initially to

connect to your WLAN.
