so select "Avaya Wireless PC Card (5 Volt)", unless you have
an embedded Avaya Wireless radio.
If the above steps do not work, you will need to uninstall your
existing driver by searching for and removing the following files:
WILUC48.DLL
WLLUC.CNT

WLLUC48.SYS

III. Troubleshooting Tips
--------------------------------------
* When installing the driver into a Windows desktop PC
using an ISA- or PCI-to-PCMCIA adapter, you MUST
correctly install the adapter card BEFORE attempting
to install the OR Client PC Driver. Failure to
correctly install the adapter card before installing
the OR Client PC Driver will cause the OR Client PC
Driver to be installed incorrectly, causing
unpredictable results.
Observed symptoms include:
- Not recognizing the Avaya Wireless PC Card when it is inserted
into the PCMCIA slot.
- Automatically detecting the Avaya Wireless PC Card when it
is inserted, and allowing you to install the driver,
but the driver does not load correctly when the
card is inserted.
- Windows Device Manager reporting that 'The device is
disabled, not installed correctly, or is not plugged in'.
- On Windows 2000, driver may appear to install correctly.
The Client Manager may report a normal connection when in
IEEE 802.11 client mode, but always report 'No COR
Station in Range' when in Outdoor Router Client mode. In both cases,
the Windows networking cable connection indicator ALWAYS
reports 'Network Cable Unplugged'.
Download Driver Pack
After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.
Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).
If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.
Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.
Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.
Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.
From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.
Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.
Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
