Wireless communications
The computer’s wireless communication function supports both Wireless 
LAN and Bluetooth devices.
Only some models are equipped with both Wireless LAN and Bluetooth 
functions.
Wireless LAN
The Wireless LAN is compatible with other LAN systems based on Direct 
Sequence Spread Spectrum / Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing 
radio technology that complies with the IEEE802.11 Wireless LAN 
standard.
Frequency Channel Selection of 5GHz for IEEE 802.11a or/and 
IEEE802.11n 
Frequency Channel Selection of 2.4GHz for IEEE 802.11b/g or/and 
IEEE802.11n 
Roaming over multiple channels
Card power management
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data encryption based on an 128-bit 
encryption algorithm
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)
Do not use the Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi), Bluetooth or Wireless WAN 
functionalities near a microwave oven or in areas subject to radio 
interference or magnetic fields. Interference from a microwave oven or 
other source can disrupt Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or Wireless WAN operation.
Turn Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and Wireless WAN functionalities off when near a 
person who may have a cardiac pacemaker implant or other medical 
electric device. Radio waves may affect pacemaker or medical device 
operation, possibly resulting in serious injury. Follow the instruction of 
your medical device when using any Wi-Fi or Bluetooth or Wireless 
WAN functionality.
Always turn off Wi-Fi or Bluetooth or Wireless WAN functionality if the 
computer is near automatic control equipment or appliances such as 
automatic doors or fire detectors. Radio waves can cause malfunction 
of such equipment, possibly resulting in serious injury.
It may not be possible to make a network connection to a specified 
network name using the ad hoc network function.
If this occurs, the new network(*) will have to be configured for all 
computers connected to the same network in order to re-enable 
network connections.
* Please be sure to use new network name.
