Using your Joybook
27
Using built-in wireless connectivity
(available on selected models)
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 a
wireless station to make transmission possible. Outdoors in
places such as in coffee shops or library, you can inquire the
service personnel about an account.
• The wireless LAN (WLAN) function is available on selected
models.
• WLAN connectivity has limited range, depending upon the
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.
Connecting to a wireless network:
1. Make sure you are located within the wireless network service
area.
2. To enable the WLAN, press the wireless button
on your
Joybook.
The wireless button indicator lights up in blue when the
WLAN is turned on.
3. Click on the WLAN icon
in the notification area located
in the lower right corner of your desktop to display a pop-up
menu.
4. From the pop-up menu, click Connect to a network.
5. Click Wireless in the Show list. A list of available wireless
networks will be displayed.
