Using Wi-Fi
NOTE:
 Use of dial-up and wireless Internet, e-mail, corporate 
networks, and other wireless communications, such as 
Bluetooth-enabled devices, may require separately purchased 
additional hardware and other compatible equipment, in addition 
to a standard WLAN infrastructure and a separately purchased 
service contract. Check with your service provider for availability 
and coverage in your area. Some Web sites may not be formatted 
to fit Pocket PC screens and may require installation of additional 
software.
Learning the Terms
It is recommended that you become familiar with the following 
terms as you begin to use Wi-Fi technology.
Term
Definition
802.11b
The standard specification for wireless 
local area networks, often called Wi-Fi.
802.1x
A standard designed to enhance the 
security of Wi-Fi networks by providing an 
authentication framework.
Authentication
The verification of the identity of a person 
or process. For example, in a 
communication system, authentication 
verifies that messages really come from 
their stated source, similar to a signature 
on a document. Logically, authentication 
precedes authorization even though they 
might appear to occur simultaneously.
Authorization
The process of granting or denying 
someone access to a network resource.
Data Encryption
A conversion process that is used for 
protecting data.
