Wi-Fi
The Wi-Fi feature in your HP iPAQ enables wireless Internet connectivity and is an effective replacement
for cable based connections. Wi-Fi uses access points to transmit and receive data. Your HP iPAQ can
connect to an 802.11b/g Wi-Fi or connect directly to other Wi-Fi-enabled devices.
NOTE:
The alphabet following 802.11 determines the frequency used, speed at which data transfer
takes place, and the signal range for the Wi-Fi-enabled device.
Use Wi-Fi to complete these tasks:
●
Access the Internet.
●
Send and receive e-mail.
●
Access corporate network information.
●
Use VPNs for secure remote access.
●
Use hotspots for wireless connectivity.
Tap Start > Settings > Connections > Wi-Fi.
NOTE:
Using dial-up or wireless networks to access a corporate network, e-mail, or other wireless
communications, such as Bluetooth devices, might require separate hardware together with a Wi-Fi
infrastructure and a service contract.
