Nokia ?110 User Manual page 8

Do not use the wireless LAN card when the use of a wireless
device is prohibited or when it may cause interference or danger. Note
that the wireless LAN card may cause similar interference as a cellular
device and must not be used in areas where the use of a cellular device is
prohibited.
Be careful when moving your computer so that you do not
cause damage to the protruding end of the inserted wireless LAN card.
In Europe, this equipment is intended to be used in the
following EU Member States: Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland,
France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands,
Portugal, Spain, Sweden, and United Kingdom. This equipment can
also be used in Norway and Switzerland.
Use the wireless LAN card in the specified countries only.
Using the wireless LAN card in any other country or with an incorrect
country setting may be illegal.
This equipment operates at 2.4 - 2.4835 GHz. Note that in
France the use of this equipment is only allowed at the frequency band
of 2.445 - 2.4835 GHz (channels 10, 11, 12, and 13).
Transmitted data is not encrypted by the wireless LAN card by
default. For more information about security in data transmission,
please visit www.forum.nokia.com.
Security issues should always be carefully considered to ensure the secure
transmission of data in both wired and wireless LANs. In current wireless
systems, for example, access points need to authenticate wireless stations to
prevent unauthorised access to the network. Authentication is a service that
confirms the identity of an entity, such as a user or a computer, or confirms
the origin of a transmitted message.
The Nokia C110/C111 supports the wired equivalent privacy (WEP)
protocol to provide security equivalent to that of a wired local area network.
The WEP protocol utilises the RC4 algorithm with an up to 128-bit secret
key, which encrypts data before it is transmitted over the radio waves. This
provides protection against intruders and unauthorised access to the data.
When the wireless stations in a wireless LAN wish to communicate using
WEP, they must have the same secret key in possession.
The Nokia C110/C111 is equipped with an integrated smart card reader.
Smart cards and smart card readers provide a tool for managing secure user
authentication in a wireless LAN. Smart cards also provide an easy way for
users to carry an authentication device with them. On a smart card users can
store important information, such as security keys and network profiles. The
