Communicating with an Access Point (infrastructure)
An infrastructure network is a network that extends an existing wired local network to wireless devices by providing an Access Point,
for example the Sony Access Point. The Access Point bridges the wireless and wired LAN and acts as a central controller for the
Wireless LAN. The Access Point coordinates transmission and reception from multiple wireless devices within a specific range.
To communicate with an Access Point (infrastructure), proceed as follows:
1 Turn on the Wireless (on models with the Bluetooth functionality*) or Wireless LAN (on models without the Bluetooth
functionality) switch.
On models with the Bluetooth functionality, the Wireless Device Switch dialog box appears.
Select the Enable 2.4 GHz Wireless LAN check box and deselect the Enable Bluetooth Device check box, then click the OK
button.
2 Right-click the network icon on the taskbar displaying the Wireless Network Connection message.
3 Click View Available Wireless Networks.
The Wireless Network Connection dialog box appears.
4 Select the network you want to use.
