Introduction
Wireless LAN
Some computers in this series are equipped with
a Wireless LAN mini-PCI card that is compatible
with other LAN systems based on Direct
Sequence Spread Spectrum/Orthogonal
Frequency Division Multiplexing radio technology
that complies with the IEEE 802.11 Standard
(Revision A, B or G), and Turbo Mode.

■
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data
encryption, based on 152 bit encryption
algorithm (Atheros module type).
■
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data
encryption, based on 128 bit encryption
algorithm (Intel module type).
■
Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) data
encryption, based on 256 bit encryption
algorithm (Atheros module type).
■
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA).
■
The numerical values for display are the theoretical maximums for
Wireless LAN standards. The actual values may differ.
■
The transmission speed over the wireless LAN and the distance over
which wireless LAN can reach may vary depending on surrounding
electromagnetic environment, obstacles, access point design and
configuration, and client design and software/hardware configurations.
The Transmit Rate (xx Mbit/s) is the theoretical maximum speed under
the IEEE802.11 (a/b/g) standard. The actual transmission speed will be
lower than the theoretical maximum speed. To use the Atheros
SuperG
TM
or SuperAG
TM
function, your client and access point must
support the corresponding feature. Performance of these functions
may vary depending on the format of data transmitted.
