Wireless Lan - Toshiba Satellite T130D User Manual

■
Do not use the Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) or Bluetooth functionalities near a
microwave oven or in areas subject to radio interference or magnetic
fields. Interference from a microwave oven or other source can disrupt
Wi-Fi or Bluetooth operation.
■
Turn Wi-Fi and Bluetooth functionalities off when near a person who
may have a cardiac pacemaker implant or other medical electric
device. Radio waves may affect pacemaker or medical device
operation, possibly resulting in serious injury. Follow the instruction of
your medical device when using any Wi-Fi or Bluetooth functionality.
■
Always turn off Wi-Fi or Bluetooth functionality if the computer is near
automatic control equipment or appliances such as automatic doors or
fire detectors. Radio waves can cause malfunction of such equipment,
possibly resulting in serious injury.
■
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.

Wireless LAN

The Wireless LAN supports the b, g standards and n* 2.0 but it 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.
* Depends on the installed Wireless LAN module.
■
Roaming over multiple channels
■
Card Power Management
■
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data encryption, based on the 128 bit
encryption algorithm.
■ Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) data encryption, based on 256 bit
encryption algorithm.
■
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.
■
To enable or disable wireless communication, use the Hot Key FN+F8.
