IntroductionIntroduction Welcome to wireless networking. You have
purchased RadioLAN’s Model 140 MOBILINK, a
wireless network device that allows you to connect
a PC that uses a PCMCIA slot to a RadioLAN
wireless network. RadioLAN wireless networks
allow network stations to access shared network
resources using a full-speed 10Mbps connection,
without typical cabling requirements.
Using the Model 140 MOBILINK in a notebook PC,
you can easily move from one location to another
without searching for a network port. If your
notebook is powered on and placed upon a rolling
cart,youcanroutethroughtheworkplacewhile
taking notes or performing data entry. One example
of this type of user would be a medical professional
that regularly dispenses medication to a number of
patients. While operating on battery power, the
nurse moves from one room to the next. While using the Model 140 MOBILINK, the nurse’s station
maintains a wireless connection to the facility’s network, and can continually receive network
messages, e-mail, and chat requests throughout the day.

Another example of Model 140 use would be a professional in an office complex. When using a hard-
wired network, the professional would typically have connection to the network in his office, but would
leave this connection to valuable resources behind when going to meetings in conference rooms.
When using the Model 140 MOBILINK, the professional would have network resource access while in
his office, and during meetings in conference rooms. The professional would enjoy necessary
network resources any time they were required.
The Model 140 MOBILINK comes with RadioNET Manager, RadioLAN’s powerful network connection
application. RadioNET Manager manages wireless network stations, enabling them to function at
optimum speeds and performance.
With RadioNET Manager you can gain access to shared network resources like printers, hard disk
drives, and other network stations. You can also receive network performance information that allows
you to:
•View detailed information for a selected station.
•View information about several stations at once.
•Modify your station name.
•Modify station Subnet ID.
•Identify access type for each station.
•Test individual stations to determine success/failure rate of transmissions.
•Test the communication connection between stations.

Installing the Model 140 MOBILINKInstalling the Model 140 MOBILINK
When installing the Model 140 MOBILINK for the first time, Windows displays a series of screens that
guide you through a driver installation procedure. After properly installing the unit’s drivers, your PC
may annunciate the presence of the PCMCIA card after the operating system boots, or when you
insert the card while the PC is operating normally.
This section of the manual discusses the steps needed to install the Model 140 with the Windows
operating system. Actual installation procedures may vary depending upon the version of Windows
that you use, but driver installation is intuitive, and easy to perform.

Inserting and removing the MOBILINKInserting and removing the MOBILINK
The transceiver comes installed on the end of the PCMCIA card, and is hinged for easy installation
and safe storage after removal. The unit is designed to open at a 130-degree angle from the PCMCIA
card. This allows the card to slide completely into the PCMCIA slot inside of the PC.
When using other PCMCIA devices: When the unit is open, the MOBILINK’s antenna points
upward. If you use other PCMCIA devices in a second slot, consider inserting the MOBILINK into the
top slot. This allows cable access to other the other card because the MOBILINK’s antenna does not
cover the other card.
The PC card interfaces the transceiver with your personal computer. It slides into any Type II or Type
III PCMCIA slot inside your notebook. After properly installing the MOBILINK, and software drivers,
you will configure the unit using RadioNET Manager.
