Security

■

TOSHIBA strongly recommend that you enable WEP (encryption) 
functionality, otherwise your computer will be open to illegal access by 
an outsider using a wireless connection. If this occurs, the outsider may 
illegally access your system, eavesdrop, or cause the loss or 
destruction of stored data.

■

TOSHIBA is not liable for the loss of data due to eavesdropping or 
illegal access through the wireless LAN and the damage thereof.

Bluetooth wireless technology

Bluetooth™ wireless technology eliminates the need for cables between 
electronic devices such as desktop computers, printers and mobile phones. 

You cannot use the built-in Bluetooth functions and an optional Bluetooth 
SD card 3 simultaneously.

Bluetooth wireless technology has the following features:

The Bluetooth radio transmitter and receiver operate in the 2.4 GHz band, 
which is license-free and compatible with radio systems in most countries 
in the world.

You can easily establish links between two or more devices. The link is 
maintained even if the devices are not within line of sight.

Two advanced security mechanisms ensure a high level of security:

■

Authentication prevents access to critical data and makes it impossible 
to falsify the origin of a message.

■

Encryption prevents eavesdropping and maintains link privacy.
