If you used the Task Bar to disable Wireless LAN, restart the computer or

follow the procedures below to enable the system to recognize Wireless

LAN. Click Start -> Control Panel -> System and Maintenance ->

wireless device then choose Enable.
It may not be possible to make a network connection to a specified network

name using the ad hoc network function.
If this occurs, the new network(*) will have to be configured for all

computers connected to the same network in order to re-enable network

connections.
* Please be sure to use new network name.

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) (depending on model you purchased). This section

describes how to connect/disconnect to a LAN.

Connecting LAN cable

If you are using Fast Ethernet LAN (100 Mbit/s, 100BASE-TX), be sure to

connect with a category 5 cable, CAT5, or higher.
If you are using Ethernet LAN (10 Mbit/s, 10BASE-T), connect with a

category 3 cable, CAT3, or higher.

Do not install or remove an optional memory module while Wake-up on

LAN is enabled.

The Wake-up on LAN function consumes power even when the system is

off. Leave the AC adaptor connected while using this feature.

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.
