Windows Wireless Networking on the Rise
Source: OS Opinion
Anyone who has tried to set up a wireless network using Windows 2000 Advanced Server or other Windows operating systems has my sympathy and, frankly, deserves a medal. Nothing should be that difficult.
That brings me to the new Networking Wizard that's included with Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) Windows XP . Using it, I was able to install my network and have it up and running with broadband Internet access using a cable modem in less than 10 minutes.
All I did was pop a PCI adapter containing a wireless card into my computer and install the drivers. The wizard did the rest. A second wireless PC card fit into the Type II PCMCIA slot in my notebook, and I put a PCI adapter and card in a second PC.
