Hi
May be this can Help, http://www.ezlan.net/wzc.html
The Extreme G mode is Not a recognized standard Mode, may be the D-Link
people know that some thing is wrong with this device and it is Not fully
compatible with Windows Wireless Zero Configuration (WZC).
So you try the D-Link manager and WZC, and see which one works better for
you.
Just make sure that they are Not working at the same tome.
