Security when using the wireless LAN product
The advantage of a wireless LAN is that information can be exchanged between a computer or other such
equipment and a wireless access point using radio waves, instead of using a LAN cable, as long as you are within
range for radio transmissions.
On the other hand, because the radio wave can travel through an obstacle (such as a wall) and is accessible from
anywhere within a given range, following problems may occur if security setting is insufficient.
f
Transmitted data may be intercepted
A malicious third part may intentionally intercept radio waves and monitor the following transmitted data.
g
Personal information such as your ID, password, credit card number
g
Content of an Email
f
Illegally accessed
A malicious third party may access your personal or corporate network without authorization and engage in the
following types of behavior.
g
Retrieve personal and/or secret information (information leak)
g
Spread false information by impersonating a particular person (spoofing)
g
Overwrite intercepted communications and issue false data (tampering)
g
Spread harmful software such as a computer virus and crash your data and/or system (system crash)
Since most wireless LAN adapters or access points are equipped with security features to take care of these
problems, you can reduce the possibility of these problems occurring when using this product by making the
appropriate security settings for the wireless LAN device.
Some wireless LAN devices may not be set for security immediately after purchase. To decrease the possibility
of occurrence of security problems, be sure to make all security related settings according to the operation
instructions supplied with each wireless LAN device before using a wireless LAN device.
Depending on the specifications of the wireless LAN, a malicious third party may be able to break security settings
by special means.
Panasonic asks customers to thoroughly understand the risk of using this product without making security
settings, and recommends that the customers make security settings at their own discretion and responsibility.
Notes regarding the wireless LAN
Radio wave in the 2.4 GHz/5 GHz band is used when the wireless LAN connection function of the projector is
used. The license of wireless station is not required, but understand the following when using.
To use the wireless LAN function with the projector, it is necessary to attach the optional Wireless Module (Model
No.: ET-WM300).
For details on how to attach the optional Wireless Module (Model No.: ET-WM300), refer to “Attaching the
Wireless Module” (
