Radio links

You can easily establish links between two or more devices, with these
links being maintained even if the devices are not within a line-of-sight of
each other.
Security
Two advanced security mechanisms ensure a high level of security:

LAN

The computer has built-in support for Ethernet LAN (10 megabits per
second, 10BASE-T) or Fast Ethernet LAN (100 megabits per second,
100BASE-TX).
This section describes how to connect/disconnect to a LAN.

LAN cable types

The computer must be configured properly before connecting to a LAN.
Logging onto a LAN using the computer's default settings could cause a
malfunction in LAN operation. Check with your LAN administrator regarding
set-up procedures.
If you are using Fast Ethernet LAN (100 megabits per second, 100BASE-
TX), be sure to connect with a CAT5 cable or higher. You cannot use a
CAT3 cable.
If you are using Ethernet LAN (10 megabits per second, 10BASE-T), you
can connect with a CAT3 or higher cable.

Connecting the LAN cable

To connect the LAN cable, follow the steps as detailed below:

system is off. Leave the AC adaptor connected while using this
