Wireless LAN Technology
The wireless communication function of the computer supports some
wireless communication devices.
Only some models are equipped with both Wireless LAN and Bluetooth
®
functions.
Do not use the Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi
®
) or Bluetooth
®
functionalities
near a microwave oven or in areas subject to radio interference or
magnetic fields. Interference from a microwave oven or other source
can disrupt Wi-Fi
®
or Bluetooth
®
operation.
Turn off all wireless functionalities when near a person who might
have a cardiac pacemaker implant or other medical electric device.
Radio waves might affect pacemaker or medical device operation,
possibly resulting in serious injury. Follow the instruction for your
medical device when using any wireless functionality.
Always turn off wireless functionality if the computer is near automatic
control equipment or appliances such as automatic doors or fire
detectors. Radio waves can cause malfunction of such equipment,
possibly resulting in serious injury.
It might not be possible to make a network connection to a specified
network name using the ad hoc network function. If this occurs, the
new network (*) has to be configured for all computers connected to
the same network in order to re-enable network connections.
* Make sure to use new network name.
