Name:
Atheros Configuration Service (ACS)
Description:
Atheros Configuration Service (ACS) is a service that handles wireless configuration and authentication. It is an alternate to the built-in Windows Wireless Zero Config (WZC) service.
Notes:
When in use, Windows Wireless Zero Config (WZC) will be disabled.

ACS does not have a user interface. It relies on other user interfaces, such as Atheros Client Utility or D-Link AirPlus Utility.
Values:
Enabled
  When enabled, ACS will handle all wireless configuration and authentication rather than Windows.
Disabled
  When disabled, Windows will handle all wireless configuration and authentication.
Default Value:
Uninstalled
Recommended Setting:
Disabled
Cloudpath Help :
Normally, Cloudpath will migrate users away from Atheros-based utilities without permanently disabling the Atheros service. Under certain circumstances, you may wish to disable it completely. If so, this setting will allow you to do so.
