Pre-requisites

• Proper drivers for your wireless network card must already be installed. Windows 7 has a huge list of built-in drivers but if there is none suitable for your card, you should refer to your card vendor's Web site and download the proper one. Advice on installing and setting up your network card can be provided by Portable Device Support.
• Your network card must be enabled and turned on (depending on the make, either via hardware or software switch).

Procedure

1. Go to any area at the EUI covered by WiFi;
2. Click on the Wireless Connection icon in the tray bar (usually bottom right corner) of the desktop: a list of available WiFi networks will show up:
