connection.

Tips for using the wireless LAN feature
Place your computer so that there are as few obstacles as possible between the wireless LAN access point and the computer.
For the best connection of the wireless LAN feature, open your computer display to an angle of slightly more than 90 degrees.
If you use the wireless feature (the IEEE 802.11 standard) of your computer simultaneously with a Bluetooth option, data transmission speed
can be delayed and the performance of the wireless feature can be degraded.
