2.2 Installation in Windows XP
Administrator rights are required to install the driver soft-
ware in Windows XP.
The installation of the Windows XP Service Pack 2 is recom-
mended; otherwise the USB 2.0 functionality is restricted.
Once the FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick is connected to your com-
puter, the "Found New Hardware Wizard" of Windows XP is
started automatically.
1.
Insert the installation CD and follow the instructions on
the screen.
Instructions for users of the Microsoft Windows XP Ser-
vice Pack 2: During the course of installing the
FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick, the "Found New Hardware Wiz-
ard" asks whether a connection to Windows Update
server should be established in order to search for the
latest device drivers. Select the option "No, not this
time". Then click "Next".
2.
After the sign-on window, select the option "Install the
software automatically (Recommended)". Confirm with
"Next".
3.
In the next window, select the option "CD-ROM drives"
and confirm by clicking "Next".
4.
The program reports that a driver was found.
5.
In the next dialog Windows may prompt you to install
software not digitally signed by Microsoft. This request
depends on the driver signature options set on your
computer. Click the "Continue Anyway" button.
6.
A message appears: "The wizard has finished installing
the software for 'AVM FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick'". Con-
clude the installation by clicking "Finish".
This completes the driver installation. Next comes the instal-
lation of the FRITZ!WLAN control software. For more informa-
tion, see the section "The FRITZ!WLAN Control Software"
from page 15.
