Important: Before proceeding, install the latest Windows updates and make sure your wireless network adpater has the latest drivers. Whether your computer has a built-in wireless adapter or a PC card-based external adapter, you should be able to download the latest drivers from the manufacturer's website. Due to compatibility issues with untested wireless cards and operating systems, IT ServiceDesk cannot guarantee every device or card will be able to gain access to the wireless network; therefore, support is not assured for non-tested hardware and operating systems.
