If You Can Connect, But the Network Is Slow
■ Check whether you might be in an area served by more than
one wireless LAN. If so, the LANs could be interfering with
each other.
■ Move closer to the access point (for an infrastructure
connection) or other wireless notebook (for an Ad Hoc
connection). You could be too far away for high-speed
communication.
Configuring Your Notebook
The BIOS Setup utility helps you configure your notebook
operation.
To Run the BIOS Setup Utility
The BIOS (basic input and output system) Setup utility enables
you to make changes to the notebook system configuration, and
to tailor the operation of your notebook to your individual work
needs.
The settings made in BIOS Setup generally control the notebook
hardware, and so greatly affect how the notebook operates.
1. Select Start > Turn Off Computer > Restart.
2. When the logo screen appears, press F2 to enter BIOS Setup.
3. The pointing devices are not active in BIOS Setup, so you
will need to use the keyboard to navigate:
❏ Press the left and right arrow keys to move among menus.
❏ Press the up and down arrow keys to move among
parameters in a menu.
❏ Press + or - to move through values for the current
parameter, or press
enter to change a setting.
