In the Manager window, you can configure various settings for your wireless
LAN card and get more detailed information on the status of the connection.
You can access it either by clicking the browse button in the Monitor
window (see Figure 5 on page 18), or by right-clicking the Nokia C110/C111
icon on the task bar and by selecting Manager window from the shortcut
menu.
The Manager window can consist of the following pages: Profiles, Status,
General settings, Diagnostics, Update, Administrator, and SIM services. The
Administrator page is used by system administrators. The number of pages
may vary depending on which pages were selected during installation. You
can view the different pages by clicking the icons on the left icon bar.
For the Nokia C110/C111 to operate in wireless local area networks, you
need to configure certain settings for each network. For example, when you
use the card in your office LAN, you need different settings from those of the
LAN at an airport you are visiting. On the Profiles page you can configure the
necessary settings and create network profiles for specific wireless LAN
environments.
A profile is a group of wireless LAN specific and Windows networking
settings that you need for accessing wireless LANs. Profiles enable easy
transfer from one network to another without having to remember all the
different settings. On the Profiles page you can also modify existing profiles
and create new profiles. Profiles are stored to a hard disk or a smart card.
You need to select a network profile suitable for the wireless LAN in which
you want your wireless LAN card to operate.When you insert the wireless
LAN card into your computer, the card selects the profile last used as a
default profile. If, however, you want to use another profile, you can either
select it from the list of existing profiles or create a new one.
In the Profile selection area, there is a list of profiles from which you can
select a profile with all necessary settings for a particular wireless LAN. If
you have connected to a network previously, you can simply select the profile
for that network and then click the Apply button. The profile that is
currently active is indicated with a green check mark, while a profile that has
been selected but is not yet activated has a frame around it. A profile which is
stored on a smart card is indicated with a small smart card symbol. The name
of the active profile is displayed in the Operating information area. See
Figure 6 on page 19.
When you select a different profile, you may be prompted to
restart your computer.
