Using the Wireless LAN
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 11 Mbps, 5.5 Mbps, 2 Mbps, and 1 Mbps with
automatic data rating
To take advantage of the WLAN feature, make sure that the WLAN
driver is installed correctly (see Chapter 6 for details). If your WLAN
card was provided by your dealer instead of the computer manufacturer,
contact your dealer for the correct driver to use.
