Using the Wireless LAN (option)
Depending on your model, an internal Mini PCI Wireless LAN (WLAN) card may have been pre-installed by your computer
manufacturer at the factory. This card allows you to access corporate networks or the Internet in a wireless environment.
The WLAN features include:
* 2.4 GHz DSSS (Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum) technology
* Peer-to-Peer (Ad-Hoc) and Access Point (Infrastructure) modes support
* WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) 64/128-bit data encryption
* Transmission rate at 9 / 18 / 36 / 54 Mbps (802.11g mode), with automatic data rating at 1 / 2 / 11 Mbps (802.11b
mode)
To take advantage of the WLAN feature, make sure that the WLAN driver is installed correctly (see Chapter 6 for more
information). If your WLAN card was provided by your dealer instead of the computer manufacturer, contact your
dealer for the correct driver to use.
Turning Off/On the WLAN Radio
NOTES:
* The FAA (Federal Aviation Agency) has deemed it unsafe to operate wireless devices in aircraft
as this may interfere with flight safety. Remember to turn off wireless LAN radio when using
your computer in the airplane.
* The information in this section applies to models with the wireless LAN module only.
* Turning the wireless LAN radio off is not the same as turning off the Windows WLAN utility.
Your computer has a built-in Fn+F1 WLAN hot key to switch the WLAN radio on/off.
Press the Fn+F1 hot key to turn on the WLAN radio. The WLAN indicator glows to indicate that the computer is ready
for WLAN connection.
To turn off the WLAN radio temporarily, press Fn+F1 hot key. The WLAN indicator will be off.
Upon booting up your computer, the WLAN radio’s setting depends on the last state when you turn off your system.
If the WLAN radio was off the last time you turn off your computer, then upon booting up your system the WLAN radio
stays off, and vice versa.
It takes approximately 30 seconds for your computer to make a successful WLAN connection and approximately 10
seconds to disconnect.
Connecting to a Wireless Network
1. Make sure that the WLAN radio is on by pressing Fn+F1 hot key.
2. Double-click the Wireless Network Connection icon located on your Windows system tray. If any wireless network is
detected, the following window appears on screen.
