Wireless communications
The computer's wireless communication function supports both Wireless
LAN and Bluetooth devices.
All models are provided with Wireless Communication switch. Some
models are equipped with both Wireless LAN and Bluetooth functions.
Wireless LAN
The Wireless LAN is compatible with other LAN systems based on Direct
Sequence Spread Spectrum/Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing
radio technology that complies with IEEE802.11 Wireless LAN standard
(Revision A, B, G or N Draft Ver. 1.0).
■ Frequency Channel Selection of 5GHz for IEEE 802.11a or 2.4GHz for
802.11b/g
■ Roaming over multiple channels
■ Card power management
■ Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data encryption, based on the 128 bit
encryption algorithm
■ Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) support
■ Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) data encryption
■ Wake-up on Wireless LAN
Setting
1. Please make sure that the Wireless Communication Switch is turned
on.
2. Click Start and then click Connect To to display Connect to a network
window.
Do not install or remove a memory module while Wake-up on Wireless
LAN is enabled.
■ The Wake-up on Wireless LAN function consumes power even when
the system is off. Leave the AC adaptor connected while using this
feature.
■ The Wake-up on Wireless LAN function is effective only when it is
connected with an Access Point. This function becomes invalid when
the connection is broken.
The transmission speed over the wireless LAN, and the distance over
which the wireless LAN can reach, may vary depending on surrounding
electromagnetic environment, obstacles, access point design and
configuration, client design and software/hardware configurations. The
transmission rate described is the theoretical maximum speed as specified
under the appropriate standard - the actual transmission speed will be
lower than the theoretical maximum speed.
