Note on Local Restrictions on 802.11a and 802.11b Radio Usage
Caution: Due to the fact that the frequencies used by 802.11a and 802.11b
wireless LAN devices may not yet be harmonized in all countries, 802.11a and
802.11b products are designed for use only in specific countries, and are not
allowed to be operated in countries other than those of designated use. As a
user of these products, you are responsible for ensuring that the products are
used only in the countries for which they were intended and for verifying that
they are configured with the correct selection of frequency and channel for the
country of use.
The device transmit power control (TPC) interface is part of the Intel ® PROSet
software. Operational restrictions for Equivalent Isotropic Radiated Power
(EIRP) are provided by the system manufacturer. Any deviation from the
permissible power and frequency settings for the country of use is an
infringement of national law and may be punished as such.
The European variant is intended for use throughout the European Economic

For all EU members except France, the allowed frequencies for 802.11b are

802.11a Permissible Frequencies
Intel PRO/Wireless 2100A LAN MiniPCI Adapters in 5 GHz mode support passive
scanning for selection of channels. This means that the adapter obtains its
channel settings from the access point to which it is connected. These values
cannot be set on the adapter itself. In order to comply with local regulations,
adapters must only be used with access points configured for the legal channels
in the country of use.
Country Permissible Frequencies
