will winxp give me a choice

Jul 20, 2008 2 Replies

When I bought my Toshiba Satellite L20/L25 series laptop it came with



a Atherous AR5005g Wireless Network. The wireless connection at home



works great but when I go on the road I get ether no signal or a low



signal. I bought a Air 802 usb adaptor with a 5 db gain antenna. When



I plug the new adaptor into the usb, " Winxp will see it and ask if I



want Winxp to configure the new wifi adaptor". My question, if



Winxp configures the new adaptor will I be able to choose between



Atheros and the Air 802 depending where I am.



Thanks for any help

Yes. It's just another network interface.

Just disable whichever device you are not using at the moment, windows wont have a choice that way.
