Chapter 11: Networking Your Gateway M405 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. Warning 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. Important If your notebook came equipped with an internal radio frequency wireless device, see "Safety, Regulatory, and Legal Information" on page 283 for general wireless regulatory and safety guidelines. To find out if your notebook has an internal wireless device, check the label (see "Identifying your model" on page 11) or the device manager. 186 www.gateway.com
