The Advanced window displays the following three tabs:
On the main window, click Options > Advanced.
This tab lets you reset the WiMAX adapter. You should only do this if the WiMAX adapter appears not to be working. All adapter activities will be stopped, your current WiMAX connection will be closed, and any search will be halted. Resetting takes from 5 to 10 seconds. This operation is similar to disabling and then enabling the adapter, using the Device Manager in Windows Vista* or Windows XP*. After resetting is complete, the WiMAX adapter should be ready to connect.
On the main window, click Options > Advanced > Adapter.
If you click Reset WiMAX adapter, and you are also connected to WiMAX, the following message is displayed:
Warning: You are currently connected to WiMAX. Resetting the WiMAX adapter will disconnect you from WiMAX. Do you want to continue?

CAUTION: The Troubleshooting tab should not be used unless you are directed to do so by your WiMAX network service provider. Changing your WiMAX connection settings will force you to reconnect and update your connection settings with your service provider.
The WiMAX connection settings are periodically updated by your WiMAX network service provider. These updates keep your WiMAX connection operating optimally. However, in rare circumstances, it may be necessary to reset your WiMAX connection settings.
On the main window, click Options > Advanced > Troubleshooting.
The Troubleshooting tab has the following button:
If you click this button, the following message is displayed:
Warning: This operation cannot be undone. This operation may cause you to loose your ability to connect to WiMAX. Do you want to continue?
Click Yes or No. Clicking Yes will restore your connection settings to their factory default state.
