Security
TOSHIBA strongly recommend that you enable 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 computer’s built-in Bluetooth functions and an optional 
Bluetooth devices simultaneously. For reference, Bluetooth wireless 
technology has the following features:
Worldwide operation
The Bluetooth radio transmitter and receiver operate in the 2.4GHz band, 
which is license-free and compatible with radio systems in most countries 
in the world.
Radio links
You can easily establish links between two or more devices, with these 
links being maintained even if the devices are not within a line-of-sight of 
each other.
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.
