Wireless LAN

Wireless LAN is an optional feature. This function allows you to create a wireless network
link with an access point or directly with another wireless-enabled PC.
Using the Quick launch key combination Fn+F2 you can enable or disable the wireless LAN
function. A corresponding LED will light.
Warning!
Make sure the Wireless LAN option is switched OFF in any environment
where it might interfere with critical and sensitive devices, e.g. on
aircraft, in hospitals and other medical centres, etc.

Conditions

An access point is a wireless transmitter that communicates with your notebook and
controls access to the network connection (e.g., a home network or a broadband
connection such as DSL). Wireless access points are often found in offices, airports,
universities or Internet cafés. They offer access to networks or to the Internet. Access
authorisations are normally needed. A fee may be required to use a public access point.
To set up a wireless network to share Internet access, files, and printers at home, you will
need an access point, a router, and a broadband (DSL or cable) modem. Some access
points can also serve as a router and/or a broadband modem. Check with your Internet
Service Provider to find the best solution for your needs. A link to another computer with
wireless LAN functionality can also be created without an access point. This will allow
you to share files, but you will need an access point and a router to share an Internet
connection. The wireless network connection works in accordance with the IEEE 802.11n
Standard (compatible with the 802.11b/g Standard). If encrypted transmission is used, this
must operate according to the same principle on all devices. Encryption is a method of
protecting the network from unauthorised access. The transmission speed can vary
according to the distance and loading of the partner.
