Wireless LAN Connection (on selected models)
The optional built-in wireless LAN is a compact easy-to-use wireless
Ethernet adapter. Implementing the IEEE 802.11 standard for
wireless LAN (WLAN), the optional built-in wireless LAN is capable of
fast data transmission rates using Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum
(DSSS) and Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM)
technologies on 2.4GHz/5GHz frequencies. The optional built-in
wireless LAN is backward compatible with the earlier IEEE 802.11
standards allowing seamless interfacing of wireless LAN standards.
The optional built-in wireless LAN is a client adapter that supports
Infrastructure and Ad-hoc modes giving you flexibility on your
existing or future wireless network configurations for distances up to
40 meters between the client and the access point.
To provide efficient security to your wireless communication, the
optional built-in wireless LAN comes with a 64-bit/128-bit Wired
Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption and Wi-Fi Protected Access
(WPA) features.
For security concerns, DO NOT connect to the unsecured
network; otherwise, the information transmission without
encryption might be visible to others.
