Network Monitor Choice!

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windows.networking.wireless (More info?)

I'm using a Linksys WMP54G wireless adapter on a computer in my kitchen
(WinXP Home Edition) and I had a little trouble getting it to work! I tried
several things (Windows wireless network wizard, set up a home network,
etc.), finally I did something right and it's been working perfectly for 2
or 3 weeks now, problem is: The Linksys monitoring program isn't my default
monitoring program, it's using the Windows monitoring program. At one point
when I opened the Linksys monitor, I got a splash screen telling me that it
wasn't the default monitor but would I like to make it so (a la Captain
Picard), so I said yes, but it didn't work, and I don't get that splash
screen anymore when I open the program. How do I fix this (change the
default monititor), any ideas?

Thanks all!

I would let the windows monitoring program run the card. I have a Linksys
USB adapter in my system and I let Windows monitor run. IT seems to handle
the network better.
You should have a icon in the right hand side of the task bar. Right clik on
this icon and chose to let windows monitor the adapter

Im sorry, I should of specified going into the Wireless Adapter
properties in Network Conections. That way you can disable Windows from
controlling it. I know that Windows has issues controlling Wireless
Connections especially if there is another interface that can control
it. Go to your Netwrok Connections screen, right click on your Wireless
Adapter connection and choose properties. You will see the the option
to disable Windows from controlling Wireless connection.
