Disconnecting the LAN cable
To disconnect the LAN cable, follow the steps below.
1. Pinch the lever on the connector in the computer’s LAN jack and pull
out the connector.
2. Disconnect the cable from the LAN hub in the same manner.
Check with your LAN administrator before disconnecting from the hub.
Wireless LAN
The wireless LAN is compatible with other LAN systems that comply with
the 802.11b/g or 802.11a/b/g wireless LAN standard.
It supports the following:
■ Automatic Transmit Rate Select mechanism in the transmit range of
54, 11, 5.5, 2 and 1 Mbit/s.
■ Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) data encryption, based on 128bit
encryption algorithm.
■ Frequency Channel Selection (5GHz and 2.4 GHz)
■ Roaming over multiple channels
■ Card Power Management
■ Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data encryption.
Wireless LAN Disclaimer:
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 actual transmission speed will be lower than the theoretical maximum
speed.
To use the Atheros SuperAG™ or SuperG™ function, your client and
access point must support the corresponding feature. Performance of
these functions may vary depending on the format of data transmitted.
Security
1. TOSHIBA strongly recommends that you enable the WEP (encryption)
function otherwise your computer could be left wide open to illicit
access via the Wireless LAN - this may result in an intrusion leading to
the theft or even loss of stored data among other things. Moreover,
the owner of an Internet connection is responsible for all browsing,
downloading, and uploading activities on that connection, therefore an
unsecured wireless network connected directly to the Internet is an
open invitation for outsiders to abuse your ISP account privileges.
2. TOSHIBA is not liable for data packet theft due to the use of the
Wireless LAN, and any damage thereof.
Wake-up on LAN does not function on a Wireless LAN.
