Using Your VAIO Computer
Using the Wireless LAN (WLAN)
Using the Wireless LAN (WLAN), all your digital devices with the built-in WLAN function communicate freely with each other
through a network. A WLAN is a network in which a user can connect to a Local Area Network (LAN) through a wireless (radio)
connection. This eliminates the need to pull cables or wires through walls and ceilings.
The WLAN supports all normal Ethernet connectivity, but with the added benefits of mobility and roaming. You can still access
information, Internet/intranet and network resources, even in the middle of a meeting, or as you move from one place to
another.
You can communicate without an access point, which means that you can communicate with a limited number of computers
(ad-hoc). Or you can communicate through an access point, which allows you to create a full infrastructure network.
