The NBG5715 supports IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g and IEEE 802.11n wireless clients. Make sure

that your notebook or computer’s wireless adapter supports one of these standards.

Wireless adapters come with software sometimes called a “utility” that you install on your

computer. See your wireless adapter’s User’s Guide for information on how to do that.

After you’ve installed the utility, open it. If you cannot see your utility’s icon on your screen, go to

Start > Programs

and click on your utility in the list of programs that appears. The utility displays

a list of APs within range, as shown in the example screen below.
