TITLE:  Intel PROSet for Intel PRO/Wireless Network Connection

VERSION:  6.00 REV:  A
DESCRIPTION:  
This package contains Intel PROSet Software for the listed systems, adapters,
and operating systems.

Intel PROSet is a wireless LAN (WLAN) application that replaces the default
Microsoft Windows XP Windows Zero Configuration service. Once Intel PROSet is
installed, it must be used to configure the Intel wireless devices and to manage
the wireless network connections. Intel PROSet is required for users with the
listed Intel adapters in order to connect to wireless networks that use Cisco
Compatible Extensions. Users may also find Intel PROSet useful for advanced
profile management, single-sign-on support, and advanced diagnostics. Most home
and small office/home office (SOHO) users do not need this functionality. If
Microsoft Windows XP Windows Zero Configuration service is required again,
uninstall Intel PROSet.
