Using the Wireless LAN (Optional)
Depending on your model, an internal mini PCI-E wireless LAN (WLAN) card
may have been pre-installed by your computer manufacturer at the factory.
This card allows you to access corporate networks or the Internet in a
wireless environment.
The WLAN features include:
Peer-to-Peer (Ad-Hoc) and Access Point (Infrastructure) modes support
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) 64/128-bit data encryption
IEEE 802.11a/b/g standard compliance

To take advantage of the WLAN feature, make sure that the WLAN driver is
installed correctly (see chapter 6 for details). If your WLAN card was provided
by your dealer instead of the computer manufacturer, contact your dealer
for the correct driver to use.
