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 2.4 GHz 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.But this depends upon the environmental conditions like presence of high
magenetic and electrical field etc.
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.
Ad-hoc mode
The Ad-hoc mode allows the Notebook PC to connect to another
wireless device. No access point (AP) is required in this wireless
environment. (All devices must install optional 802.11 wireless LAN
adapters.)
