Wireless LAN
Wireless LAN is an optional feature. This function allows you to
create a wireless network link with an access point or directly with
another wireless-enabled PC.
Using the Quick launch button
you can enable or disable the
wireless LAN function. A corresponding LED will light.
Warning!
Make sure the Wireless LAN option is switched OFF in
any environment where it might interfere with critical
and sensitive devices, e.g., on aircraft, in hospitals and
other medical centres, etc.
Conditions
An access point is a wireless transmitter that communicates with
your notebook and controls access to the network connection
(e.g., a home network or a broadband connection such as DSL).
Wireless access points are often found in offices, airports, univer-
sities or Internet cafés. They offer access to networks or to the
Internet.
Access authorizations are normally needed. A fee may
be required to use a public access point.
To set up a wireless network to share Internet access, files, and
printers at home, you will need an access point, a router, and a
broadband (DSL or cable) modem. Some access points can also
serve as a router and/or a broadband modem. Check with your
retailer or Internet Service Provider to find the best solution for
your needs.
A link to another computer with wireless LAN functionality can
also be created
without an access point . This will allow you to
share files, but you will need an access point and a router to
share an Internet connection.
The wireless network link works according to standard
IEEE
802.11g which is also compatible with the IEEE 802.11b stan-
dard. The standard 802.11a is supported.
If encrypted transmission is used, this must operate according to
the
same principle on all devices . Encryption is a method of
protecting the network from unauthorized access.
