To check the support of this function, see the properties of the installed wireless card by referring to the extended channel mode enablement instructions. For systems with 802.11b wireless function supporting Extended Channel Mode: This device may only be used with Access Points, which are authorized for use within the geography in which they are being used. The use of this device with an Access Point that is not Wi-Fi compliant and not authorized to be used in your geography could result in violation of government regulations. Consult the network administrator, the instruction manual, or the approval label for the Access Point to determine the authorization of your Access Point in your specific country or geographic region. "Extended Channel Mode" should only be selected when the device is operated outside the USA and Canada to avoid the unlikely possibility of unauthorized operation. The use of this device outside the United States and Canada in "Extended Channel Mode" may use frequencies not authorized for use in the United States and Canada. When used with an authorized Wireless Access Point that is Wi-Fi compliant or in Ad Hoc mode, this device will operate in its authorized modes in all geographies. Please reconfigure selected frequencies when you travel from one country to another. Enabling Extended Channel Mode The statement below regarding the extended channel mode is applicable when the system supports this function. To check the support of this function, see the properties of the installed wireless card by referring to the extended channel mode enablement instructions. In countries other than the United States and Canada, extra IEEE 802.11b channels may be supported. If you have a problem to connect to an Access Point, contact your system administrator or check your Access Point to know which channel is used. And if the 802.11b channel is 12 or greater, you will need to enable "Extended Channel Mode" as follows. 1. Start the computer and log on with administrative privileges. 2. Click Start, then right-click My Computer (for Windows 2000, right-click My Computer on the desktop) and select Properties. 3.
