Individuals using the newer Lucent Orinoco Wi-Fi cards (v7.x or higher of the drivers) will require the Orinoco Client Manager installed in order to identify the SSID.

Older versions of the Lucent Wi-Fi cards, called WaveLan cards, do not need a Client Manager to identify the SSID.

Look in the System Tray (by the clock) for a symbol comparable to the icon with the box around it:

Double click on the Orinoco icon and a window will open that looks like this:

At this point, you will need to click on the "Actions" menu and select "Add/Edit Configuration Profile." This will open a screen that looks like this:

Unless a bluestreak connection is already a profile choice, select an empty profile choice. Enter "bluestreak Connection" as an identifier. Next, make sure that the dropdown menu on the right is set to "Access Point," then click on "Edit Profile" to open a window like this:

Where it says "Network Name," type in the appropriate SSID, "SedTech_Access" (without the quotes, case-sensitive). Then click on the "Encryption" tab to bring up this window:

On this window, make sure that "Enable Data Security" is unchecked. After confirming that "Enable Data Security" is disabled, click "OK" until the Orinoco Client Manager window is the only window open. Make sure that the dropdown menu in the upper right corner has the profile named "SedTech Connection" selected. There should be green bars above where it says "Signal Strength."
