INSTALLING THE PACKET DRIVER
Copy WVLAN42.COM and PACKET.INI to your system. Adjust the configuration
parameters if needed. PACKET.INI contains information on the configuration
parameters including their valid ranges and default values. Refer to the 802.11 Wireless LAN
PC Card MS-DOS and Windows 3.1 Installation Guide, DOS.pdf, for more information.
RUNNING THE PACKET DRIVER
To start the Packet Driver enter:
WVLAN42 L
The Packet Driver can be loaded from AUTOEXEC.BAT. The Packet Driver searches
for the configuration file PACKET.INI in the current working directory.
To unload the Packet Driver enter:
WVLAN42 U
To get help information for the Packet Driver enter:
WVLAN42 H
When the Packet Driver encounters an unknown keyword in configuration in
PACKET.INI it will produce an error message, but load anyway. When a
configuration parameter is given an invalid value in PACKET.INI an error
message will be given as well, but in this case the Packet Driver will not
load.
If you want to run PDETHER on top of the Packet Driver you should use
version 1.03 or newer.
In case of problems with your customized PACKET.INI, you are advised to revert
back to the original PACKET.INI version on the RoamAbout Software Distribution
Media.

Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.
From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.
