It may not be possible to make a network connection to a specified network
name using the ad hoc network function. If this occurs, the new network (*)
will have to be configured for all computers connected to the same network
in order to re-enable network connections.
* Please be sure to use new network name.
Security
1. TOSHIBA strongly recommends that you enable the WEP encryption
function otherwise your computer could be left open to illicit access via
the wireless LAN connection which may result in an intrusion that can
lead to the theft or loss of stored data among other things. In addition,
the owner of an Internet connection is responsible for all browsing,
downloading, and uploading activities on that connection. Therefore, an
unsecured wireless network connected directly to the Internet is an
open invitation for outsiders to abuse your ISP account and privileges.
2. TOSHIBA is not liable for the eavesdropping on your data due to the
use of the wireless LAN connection and any damage that may occur
thereof.
11a, 11b, 11g and 11n wireless are based on IEEE 802.11a, 802.11b,
802.11g and 802.11n respectively. The IEEE 802.11n specification has not
been finalized and is currently in draft release. The TOSHIBA 11a/b/g/n
Wireless LAN Adapters are based on the Draft Release, Version 1.0, of the
IEEE 802.11n specification. An Adapter with 11a/b, 11a/b/g or 11a/b/g/n
can communicate on any of its supported formats; the actual connection
will be based on the access point to which it connects.
Connection compatibility with the wireless equipment in Draft 11n mode is
not guaranteed.
The Draft 11n function cannot be used with WEP/TKIP. Draft 11n mode can
be used only with WPA-PSK (AES) mode or no security mode.
