Modifications and Bug Fixes

1. Enhanced the utility to add itself to the Windows XP firewall exception list if the Windows XP is SP2 or later. This allows the Installation Assistant to detect the WGPS660e without asking you to disable the XP firewall.
2. Enhanced the Installation Assistant to allow you to update the existing wireless settings after initial configuration. You can now select �Set up a printer�, and then indicate that it is not the first time connecting to the print server. The option to change the wireless settings will then be available to the user.
3. Installation Assistant is referring the user to the router�s manual on how to reserve an IP address on the router.
4. Fixed the issue of displaying empty SSID list in a noisy wireless environment. The previous version may display an empty list and required a refresh to show the list of SSID.
5. The SSID list can be sorted on each column ( SSID, MAC address, channel, signal strength, and security ). The list is sorted by signal strength as default.
6. If no SSID is detected in the network, possible reasons are now listed to help with the rest of the installation.
7. Fixed the issue of displayed incorrect MAC addresses if multiple WGPN606's are detected.
8. Instructed the user to remove the Ethernet cable if the computer already has the wireless capability. The user only need to wire-connect between computer and WGPS606 during � Set up a printer�.
9. If the Installation Assistant is unable to retrieve a recommended IP address automatically due to lack of DHCP server in the environment, then the you are notifed to manually enter an IP address for the print server.
10. Improved the performance of the Installation Assistant when multiple adapters on detected on the computer system.
