Chapter 11: Networking Your Gateway M505

Using a wireless Ethernet network

A wireless Ethernet network is ideal for creating a home or office network or
adding mobility to an existing wired Ethernet network. A wireless Ethernet
network allows you the freedom to move about your home or office with your
notebook or tablet PC. For example, you can take your notebook or tablet PC
from your home office to your patio without having an Ethernet jack available.

Radio frequency wireless communication can interfere
with equipment on commercial aircraft. Current aviation
regulations require wireless devices to be turned off while
traveling in an airplane. IEEE 802.11a, IEEE 802.11b, and
IEEE 802.11g communication devices are examples of
devices that provide wireless communication. For
instructions to turn wireless Ethernet on and off, see
"Turning your wireless Ethernet emitter on or off" on
page 192.
