APPENDIX C
Wi-Fi Frequencies
Palm™ Tungsten™ C handhelds operate in the Industry Scientific and Medical
band (ISM). The ISM band is an internationally recognized band for radio LANs
which operates in the 2.4 Ghz range. There are 14 allocated channels within this
band.
Not all countries support all channels in the ISM band. Because the regulations for
wireless communication vary between countries, the Tungsten C handheld is only
certified for use in the country where it was originally sold. Therefore, if you take
your Tungsten C handheld to countries other than where your handheld is
certified, there is a possibility that you will not be able to connect to an access point.
The following list identifies by country of purchase which channels your Tungsten
C handheld is set for:
