• For Windows XP, will auto-recognize. • For Windows 98SE, NT, 2000 & ME, this is a two-step process: • A driver is located on the CD-Rom that came with the adapter. When you start the computer with the adapter installed, it will ask for a driver. Place the Linksys or Orinoco CD-Rom in the CD-Rom drive; let windows search the CD-Rom for the driver. See below for answers to any on-screen questions. Do not install the rest of the software from the CD-Rom. • We provide client software that manages the connection for you. It is easy to install and use. It is free for use anywhere on our network. This configuration software is our recommended software, so DO NOT install the rest of the software supplied with your adaptor after driver installation • For Macintosh or Apple, the software is in the configuration for the AirPort card. See the AirPort card documentation for specific instructions. You will need to set your AirPort card to select the Neighbor Networks SSID to access our network. Ho
