3. Setup Guide

3.1 System Requirements

• Operating System: Windows 10 or Windows 11
• Available USB Port (USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 recommended for optimal performance)

3.2 Driver Installation

1. Insert the Adapter: Plug the WONLINK USB WiFi + Bluetooth Adapter into an available USB port on your PC.
2. Automatic Driver Detection: Windows may initially recognize the device as an external drive. This is expected. The adapter contains a small internal flash memory with the necessary drivers.
3. Run Installer: The installation program, typically named "WifiAutoInstallSetup.exe", should automatically launch. If it does not, navigate to "This PC" or "My Computer", locate the newly detected USB drive (it might appear as a small capacity drive), and manually run "WifiAutoInstallSetup.exe".
4. Follow On-Screen Prompts: Proceed with the installation by following the instructions provided by the setup wizard.
5. Verify Installation: Once the installation is complete, open Device Manager (search for "Device Manager" in the Windows search bar). You should see the Bluetooth device listed under "Bluetooth" (e.g., "Bluetooth Device Personal Area Network") and the wireless network adapter under "Network adapters" (e.g., "Realtek 8851BU Wireless LAN Wifi 6 USB NIC").
6. Important Note on Services: The installation adds two services: "WifiAutoInstallSrv" and "RTUsbSwSrvc". The "RTUsbSwSrvc" service must remain running for the adapter's Bluetooth and WiFi functions to be recognized, especially if you unplug and re-plug the device.

Security Tip: For enhanced security, consider disabling automatic playback for external USB drives in your Windows settings. Always scan any new executable files with a reputable antivirus program before running them.

5. Click "Add Bluetooth or other device" and select "Bluetooth".
6. Select your device from the list that appears and follow any on-screen prompts to complete the pairing process.

4.3 Optimizing Performance

• USB Port Selection: For optimal speed and access to 5G networks, plug the adapter into a USB 3.0 port on your computer. While compatible with USB 2.0, performance may be limited.
• Disable Power Saving: To prevent intermittent disconnections or reduced performance, disable power saving mode for the USB device in Device Manager. Navigate to Device Manager > Network adapters > Realtek 8851BU Wireless LAN Wifi 6 USB NIC (or similar) > Properties > Power Management tab, and uncheck "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power". Do the same for the Bluetooth adapter under "Bluetooth".
• Proximity: The recommended operating distance for the adapter is within 10 meters (approximately 33 feet). Performance may degrade beyond this range.
• Network Configuration: For advanced network settings in Windows, press Win + R and type ncpa.cpl to open Network Connections.

5. Maintenance and Care

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the adapter. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosols.
• Storage: When not in use, keep the dust-proof cap on the adapter to protect the USB connector. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Handling: Handle the adapter gently. Avoid dropping it or subjecting it to strong impacts.
