Using Wireless LAN connectivity

Wireless connectivity and some features may require you to 
purchase additional software, external hardware or services. 
Availability of public wireless LAN access points may be limited.

Your system comes with a LAN module. This is a technology that 
expands wireless communication beyond networking equipment, 
and can connect many different kinds of electronic devices without 
the need for cables.

For information on how to set up a wireless connection, refer to 
your wireless networking device documentation or your network 
administrator.

To turn your wireless communication ON/OFF, press 

Fn

 + 

F8

.

To enable or disable wireless communication, use the Hot Key 

Fn+F8

. For more information see 

“Hot Keys” on page 160

.

When the Wireless antenna is ON, the wireless indicator light 

 will 

be lit.

For help with common Wi-Fi

 networking problems, see 

“Wireless 

networking problems” on page 147

.

Connecting your computer to a network 

You can connect your computer to a network to increase its 
capabilities and functionality using one of its communication ports.
