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 exibility on your
existing or future wireless network congurations for distances up to
40 meters between the client and the access point.
To provide ecient security to your wireless communication, the
optional built-in wireless LAN comes with a 64-bit/128-bit Wired

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