Setting Up and Using Networks

To scan for WiFi WLAN, slide and hold the switch in the "momentary"
position for a few seconds. The Wi-Fi Catcher Network Locator functions
regardless of whether your Tablet-PC is turned on or off, in hibernate mode,
or in sleep mode, as long as the switch is configured through Dell QuickSet or
the BIOS (system setup program) to control WiFi network connections.
Because the Wi-Fi Catcher Network Locator is disabled and not configured
for use when your Tablet-PC is shipped to you, you must first use Dell
QuickSet to enable and configure the switch to control WiFi network
connections.
For more information on the Wi-Fi Catcher Network Locator and to enable
the feature through Dell QuickSet, right-click the QuickSet icon in the
taskbar and select
Help .

Firewall
Windows Firewall provides basic protection from unauthorized access to your
Tablet-PC while it is connected to the Internet. Windows Firewall is
automatically enabled when you run the Network Setup Wizard.
When Windows Firewall is enabled for a network connection, the firewall
icon appears with a red background in the
Network Connections section of
the Control Panel.
NOTE:
Enabling Windows Firewall does not reduce the need for virus-checking
software.
