3) USING THE HAWKING WIRELESS UTILITY
Each time you insert the Hawking Hi-Gain card the Hawking Wireless
Utility should automatically load. In the case that it doesn’t you may
manually load the Utility by using “FINDER” to view your
“APPLICATIONS” folder and selecting the Hawking Wireless Utility
Icon displayed on the left.
The Configuration Utility is categorized into 6 Tabs. For this QIG, we will
concentrate only on the SITE SURVEY and LINK STATUS tab. If you wish to find out
more about the Utility, please view the Users Manual for detailed instructions.
The SITE SURVEY tab will give you information regarding the wireless networks within
your vicinity.
1) Click on Rescan to update the
list of wireless networks in your
area.
2) Once the list of wireless
networks appear, highlight your
desired network and double-click to
Connect to the network. You
should now be successfully
connected to your network.
Note: If your scan provides no wireless networks, double check to see if your wireless
network is set up correctly. If the problem persists, check with your wireless AP/Router
manufacturer’s technical support department.

4) READING THE LINK STATUS PAGE AND OBTAINING THE
STRONGEST SIGNAL
The Link Status page gives you information
regarding your current wireless channel,
transmit rate (speed) and link/signal quality.
You will use this utility to figure out which
antenna position results in the best
performance and connection.
1) First you must determine where the location of your Wireless Access Point is within your
network.
2) Position the directional antenna towards the location of the Access Point.
3) While viewing your Link Status utility, rotate the antenna clockwise and counter-clockwise
slowly to figure out which position gives you the highest Link Quality and Signal Strength.
Once you have determined which position gives you the best signal, leave the antenna in
that orientation.
4) When you are not using the Hi-Gain CardBus Card, fold down the antenna to its original
closed position to avoid damage when travelling.

5) ENABLING WIRELESS SECURITY
If your current wireless network is using wireless security you will first have to figure out whether
your network uses WEP or WPA. You can ask your system administrator if you do not know
which standard you are using. Fore more detailed information on how to configure security please
see the User’s Manual.
To enable the WEP or WPA in the Hawking Wireless Utility you do it two ways. The first is to
simply do a SITE SURVEY and connect to the network. The Utility will prompt you to enter the
security key to access the network.
The second method is to create a Profile which allows you to save the security key used by your
network so when you connect in the future you will not have to enter the key again.
To create a PROFILE select the Profile tab on the top left of the Wireless Utility. Click Add to
create a profile.
a) Enter a Profile name in the highlighted
field to the right. This will help you
easily recognize the profile for future
use.
b) Enter the exact SSID of the specific
network you are creating a Profile for.
c) Select Authentication and Security
to set the security key.
d) Select the correct Authentication type
used by your network. The Hawking
Wireless Utility supports both WEP and
WPA Wireless Security.
e) Enter your specific network key into the
spaces provided. Click OK when you
have completed entering the
information. Select OK one more time
on the Profile page to save the profile.
