CHAPTER 8
Your Wireless Connection
What can I do with the built-in wireless technology?
Access your corporate network.
Whether you are attending a meeting or roaming the hallway,
you can stay connected to the information you need.
Send text or email messages.
Whether you send text or email messages once a week or
constantly throughout the day, wireless connectivity means that you can share information.
Access the web.
Connect to the internet for news and information in a cafe, in a meeting, or in
your car.
Reduce cable clutter by synchronizing wirelessly.
Imagine your desk and workstation without
cable clutter. Wireless technology on your device replaces many of the connecting cables with a
wireless connection for tasks such as synchronizing.
Connect to other devices to share files wirelessly.
Wouldn’t it be great if you could
or print wirelessly on a printer?
What types of connections can I make?
With built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth wireless technology, you can make connections in a wide range
of locations. Wi-Fi connections are accessible in the following areas:
• When you are in range of Wi-Fi access points for public networks, such as wireless cafes and city
networks. You can use the networks to browse the Internet or send and receive email. Some
public networks require a subscription fee. Check with the public network provider for details.
• When you are in range of WI-Fi access points for private networks in a corporation or home. If
these networks are secure, you must have the necessary keys to access the network. Once you
are on the network, you can browse the Internet, send and receive emails, or even access
network devices such as your computer.
