Introduction
Welcome to wireless networking. You have
purchased RadioLAN’s Model 140 MOBILINK, a
wireless network device that allows you to connect
a PC that uses a PCMCIA slot to a RadioLAN
wireless network. RadioLAN wireless networks
allow network stations to access shared network
resources using a full-speed 10Mbps connection,
without typical cabling requirements.
Using the Model 140 MOBILINK in a notebook PC,
you can easily move from one location to another
without searching for a network port. If your
notebook is powered on and placed upon a rolling
cart, you can route through the workplace while
taking notes or performing data entry. One example
of this type of user would be a medical professional
that regularly dispenses medication to a number of
patients. While operating on battery power, the
nurse moves from one room to the next. While using the Model 140 MOBILINK, the nurse’s station
maintains a wireless connection to the facility’s network, and can continually receive network
messages, e-mail, and chat requests throughout the day.
