Wireless LAN Connection (on selected models)

The optional built-in wireless LAN is a compact easy-to-use wireless

Ethernet adapter. Implementing the IEEE 802.11 standard for wireless LAN (WLAN), the optional built-in wireless LAN is capable of fast data transmission rates using Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum

(DSSS) and Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) technologies on 2.4GHz/5GHz frequencies. The optional built-in wireless LAN is backward compatible with the earlier IEEE 802.11 standards allowing seamless interfacing of wireless LAN standards.

The optional built-in wireless LAN is a client adapter that supports

Infrastructure and Ad-hoc modes giving you flexibility on your existing or future wireless network configurations for distances up to

40 meters between the client and the access point.

To provide efficient security to your wireless communication, the optional built-in wireless LAN comes with a 64-bit/128-bit Wired

Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption and Wi-Fi Protected Access

(WPA) features.

For security concerns, DO NOT connect to the unsecured network; otherwise, the information transmission without encryption might be visible to others.
