Using your Joybook

Using built-in wireless connectivity
With the built-in wireless connectivity of your Joybook, you can
access other wireless network enabled devices (such as Access
Point network stations, Notebook computers, Personal Digital
Assistants, or digital projectors) wirelessly without the
constraints of network cables.
To connect with a Local Area Network (LAN) at home or in the
office, you need the details of an access point, which serves as an
air station to make transmission possible. Outdoors in places
such as in coffee shops or library, you can inquire the service
personnel about an account.
Connecting to a wireless network
1. Make sure you are located within the wireless network
service area.
2. Enable WLAN by pressing <Fn> + <F12> and selecting
either one of the following states.
When the WLAN is on, the WLAN indicator flashes in blue.
3. Click on the WLAN icon
in the notification area
located at the lower right corner of the desktop to display a
pop-up menu.

. If security
authentication is not required by the network you are using,
• Wireless LAN (WLAN) may not be available on some
models.

equipment being used, the chosen frequency band, radio-
wave interference, and the physical landscape (including
building structure). Circumstances will vary depending upon
your particular situation.
