Accessing WLAN Software and

Documentation

HP provides wireless local area network (WLAN) software with

all notebooks that feature an integrated WLAN device. If your

computer is running:

■Microsoft Windows® XP—The native operating system

supports basic WLAN configuration. However, you must

install the HP WLAN software if you plan to use Cisco Client

Extensions.

■Microsoft Windows 2000—The native operating system does

not support WLAN configuration. To use your integrated

WLAN device, you must install the HP WLAN software.

The procedures for installing the WLAN software and accessing

the WLAN software documentation have changed since the

publication of your model-specific documentation. To access

WLAN software and documentation, follow the instructions on

this card rather than the instructions in your model-specific guides.

Identifying a WLAN Device

To install HP WLAN software for an integrated WLAN device,

you need to know the name of the integrated WLAN device. To

identify any integrated WLAN device on your computer:

WLAN SW RTF.fm Page 1 Tuesday, September 9, 2003 12:32 PM

1. Display the names of all the network adapters on your computer.

❏

In Windows XP—Select Start > My Computer. Right-click

on the My Computer window, then select Properties >

Hardware tab > Device Manager > Network Adapters.

❏In Windows 2000—Select Start > Settings > Control

Panel > System icon > Hardware tab > Device Manager >

Network Adapters.

2. Identify a WLAN adapter from the list that is displayed.

❏The listing for a WLAN adapter includes the term

wireless LAN, WLAN, or 802.11.

❏If no WLAN adapter is listed, either your computer does

not have an integrated WLAN device, or the driver for the

WLAN device is not properly installed.

Accessing WLAN Software

Windows XP

HP WLAN software for Windows XP is available as a SoftPaq at

the HP Web site. To access, download, and install the SoftPaq,

use either of the following procedures:

■Select Start > Help and Support, select a link, then follow the

instructions on the screen

■Visit the HP Web site at http://www.hp.com/support. Choose your

language and region, select the Download Drivers and

Software radio button, enter your computer model

information, then follow the instructions provided at the Web

site. WLAN software is provided in the Network category.

❏To access model information about your computer, refer

to the serial number label. The serial number label is on

the underside of most notebook models and on the back

of tablet PC models.

❏For more information about downloading and installing a

SoftPaq, refer to your model-specific documentation.
