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
