Security
1. TOSHIBA strongly recommends that you enable the WPA 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.

Bluetooth wireless technology

Bluetooth™ wireless technology eliminates the need for cables between
electronic devices such as desktop computers, printers and mobile phones.
Bluetooth wireless technology has the following features:

Worldwide operation

The Bluetooth radio transmitter and receiver operate in the 2.4 GHz band,
which is license-free and compatible with radio systems in most countries
in the world.

Radio links

You can easily establish links between two or more devices. The link is
maintained even if the devices are not within line of sight.
Security
Two advanced security mechanisms ensure a high level of security:
■
Authentication prevents access to critical data and makes it impossible
to falsify the origin of a message.

Encryption prevents eavesdropping and maintains link privacy.
