Vodnik za namestitev

  1. Namestite gonilnik: Before plugging in the WiFi adapter, insert the provided driver CD into your computer's CD/DVD drive. Locate and run the "setup.exe" file to install the necessary drivers. If your computer does not have a CD drive, please download the latest drivers from the official EDUP webmesto.
  2. Priključite adapter: Once the driver installation is complete and your system has rebooted (if prompted), carefully plug the EDUP USB WiFi Adapter into an available USB 2.0 port on your PC, desktop, laptop, or tablet. Ensure the detachable antenna is securely screwed onto the adapter.
  3. Connect to a Wi-Fi Network:
    • On Windows: Click the network icon in your system tray (usually bottom-right corner). Select your desired Wi-Fi network from the list. Enter the network password (security key) if prompted, and click "Connect".
    • On Mac OS: Go to System Preferences > Network. Select Wi-Fi from the left pane. Choose your network from the "Network Name" dropdown, enter the password, and click "Join".

Pomembna opomba: This Wi-Fi dongle has two bands (2.4GHz and 5GHz). For optimal performance, especially for HD streaming and gaming, connect to a 5GHz network if your router supports it. The 5GHz band offers higher speeds but has a shorter effective range and is more susceptible to obstacles. The 2.4GHz band provides a wider range and better penetration through walls, suitable for general web browsing and online chatting.
