Precautions Regarding Security When Using Wireless LAN Products
Wireless LAN offers the advantage of sending and receiving information to and from a computer by radio waves between
wireless LAN access points instead of a LAN cable in the range of the wireless signal.
However, the radio waves can reach all areas within range even through obstructions (such as walls), so if security
settings are not configured, the following problems can occur.
Snooping of transmitted information
A malicious third party can deliberately intercept the radio signal to snoop for transmitted information, including your
ID, password, credit card information and other personal information, and contents of sent e-mail.
Illegal access to a network
A malicious third party can access a personal or corporate network without authorization to commit the following acts.
Obtaining personal and confidential information (information leak)
Deceiving a specific person and sending unauthorized information (spoofing)
Rewriting intercepted information and sending it (tampering)
Damaging data or a system by spreading a computer virus (cracking)
Wireless LAN cards and wireless LAN access points have security measures to help prevent these problems when used
with the security features configured.
It is recommended that you configure the security settings to use your products at your discretion LAN device, and you
are responsible for all actions should you choose not to configure the security settings.
IMPORTANT
About security

About signal strength
Wireless LAN uses radio waves; therefore, nearby wireless LAN access points may be detected.
If the specified access point name (SSID) has been manually entered and there are multiple wireless LAN access points
with the same SSID and security information, connect to the wireless LAN access point with the strongest signal (RSSI).
NOTE
Use in an office
For details on the network settings, consult your network administrator.
