The following features are available in Intel® PROSet/Wireless Software WiFi Connection Utility:
- Administrator Tool – Installs to the Tools menu and is used to configure common (shared) profiles. The Information Technology department uses the Administrator Tool to enable or disable features within the WiFi connection utility.

The Fast User Switching and the Windows XP* Welcome Screen are disabled when Single Sign On support is installed.
| Note | Windows* Fast User Switching for home users is enabled by default if you use Windows XP Home Edition*. Fast User Switching is also available on Windows XP Professional* if you install it on a stand-alone or workgroup-connected computer. If you add a computer running Windows XP Professional to a domain, the Fast User Switching option is not available. |
Pre-logon connect
A Pre-logon/Common profile is active once you log on to the computer. Pre-logon Connect establishes a wireless connection before you log on to Windows*. The feature is installed with Single Sign On.
