Operating Basics Wireless LAN The Wireless LAN is compatible with other LAN systems based on Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum/Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing radio technology that complies with the IEEE802.11 Wireless LAN standard. ■ Frequency Channel Selection of 2.4GHz for 802.11b/g or n draft 2.0 ■ Roaming over multiple channels ■ Card power management ■ Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data encryption based on an 128-bit encryption algorithm ■ Wi-Fi Protected Access™ (WPA™) support ■ Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) data encryption ■ The transmission speed over the wireless LAN, and the distance over which the wireless LAN can reach, may vary depending on surrounding electromagnetic environment, obstacles, access point design and configuration, client design and software/hardware configurations. The transmission rate described is the theoretical maximum speed as specified under the appropriate standard - the actual transmission speed will be lower than the theoretical maximum speed. ■ To enable or disable wireless communication, use the Hot Key FN+F8. For more information see the Hot keys section in Chapter 5. Each time you restart or reboot your computer, wireless communication is reset to enabled (ON) by default.
