European Economic Area Restrictions

Local Restriction of 802.11b/802.11g Radio Usage

[Note to integrator: The following statements on local restrictions must be published in all end-user documentation provided with the system or product incorporating the Wireless Network product.

Due to the fact that the frequencies used by 802.11b/802.11g wireless LAN devices may not yet be harmonized in all countries, 802.11b/802.11g products are designed for use only in specific countries or regions, and are not allowed to be operated in countries or regions other than those of designated use.

As a user of these products, you are responsible for ensuring that the products are used only in the countries or regions for which they were intended and for verifying that they are configured with the correct selection of frequency and channel for the country or region of use. Any deviation from permissible settings and restrictions in the country or region of use could be an infringement of local law and may be punished as such.

The European variant is intended for use throughout the European Economic Area. However, authorization for use is further restricted in particular countries or regions within countries, as follows:

General

European standards dictate maximum radiated transmit power of 100 mW effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP) and the frequency range 2400 – 2483.5 MHz.

Belgium

The product may be used outdoors, but for outdoor transmissions over a distance of 300m or more, a license from the BIPT is required.

European Telecommunication Information (for products fitted with EU-approved modems)

Marking by the symbol indicates compliance of this equipment to the Radio and Telecom Terminal Equipment Directive 1999/5/EC. Such

marking is indicative that this equipment meets or exceeds the following technical standards:

CTR 21 – Attachment requirements for pan-European approval for connection to the analogue Public Switched Telephone Networks (PSTNs) of TE (excluding TE supporting voice telephony services) in which network addressing, if provided, is by means of Dual Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) signaling.

Although this equipment can use either loop disconnect (pulse) or DTMF (tone) signaling, only the performance of the DTMF signaling is subject to regulatory requirements for correct operation.

It is therefore strongly recommended that the equipment is set to use DTMF signaling for access to public or private emergency services. DTMF signaling also provides faster call setup.

This equipment has been approved to Council Decision 98/482/EEC-“CTR 21” for Pan-European single terminal connection to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN).

However, due to differences between the individual PSTNs provided in different countries, the approval does not, of itself, give an unconditional assurance of successful operation on every PSTN termination point. In the event of problems, you should contact manufacturer Technical Support.

⑤ Right-click on the Wireless Network Connections and select Disable.

When I am connected to a 100Mbps/1Gbps wired LAN and the computer exits Sleep/hibernation mode, a message appears informing you of a connection to a 10Mbps/100Mbps wired LAN.

A When the computer exits standby/hibernate mode, restoring the network takes about 3 seconds. When the network is restored, it operates at 100Mbps/1Gbps.

Wireless Network (WLAN) Related

The Wireless LAN device is operating properly, but I cannot connect to the Internet or to another computer.

This is due to an incorrect configuration, or a configuration error. Check the following:
A1 If you are using a computer-to-computer (Ad Hoc) network connection, check that the name of the configured network (SSID) is correct.
A2 If you are using a network key (encryption key), you have to use the same network key for an AP (Access Point) or a computer-to-computer network (Ad Hoc). The network key of the AP is configured in the AP management program. Ask your network administrator or AP manager for more detailed information.
A3 Check that the device driver is installed properly. If the driver is not properly installed, you will find a yellow exclamation mark on the network icon by clicking Start > Control Panel > System and Maintenance > Device Manager > Network Adapter.

The signal strength is excellent, but I cannot connect to the network.

Even if the signal strength is excellent, the network connection may not operate properly if the TCP/IP properties are not properly configured, or the network key (encryption key) is incorrect.

A Check that the TCP/IP properties are configured properly. When connecting to an AP, right-click the Network Connections 📄 icon on the taskbar and select Network and Sharing Center. If you click the View Status next to a connected wireless network device and then click the Detail button, you can view the IP information. If the IP is not allocated properly, the IP address will be displayed as follows (e.g. 169.254.xxx.xxx).

If the network does not provide DHCP, you have to specify the correct IP address by asking your network administrator.

Even if the network provides DHCP, the server may not allocate an IP address to the client properly, and the client station cannot connect to the network.

I cannot connect to the AP.

▶ Check the Computer Settings

A1 Click Start> All programs> Accessories> Windows Mobility Center and check the status of Wireless Device.

- When the Wireless is turned off

Turn on the Wireless via the button 'Turn wireless on' in the Mobility Center.

If the button is inactivated with gray color, change the Wireless LAN item to On in the MENU.

- When the Wireless Network status is 'Not connected'

The computer is not connected to AP. Check the AP status with reference to 'Check the AP Settings' below.

Retry to connect after checking the network key settings (encryption key) of related AP.

- When the Wireless Network status is Connected but the internet is not enabled.

The computer is connected to AP but the AP or the network connected with the AP may have a problem.

- When a message of ‘No wireless Adapter found’ appear or a icon for Wireless Network is not found in the Mobility Center.

The wireless device is set to 'Disabled' or the device is not detected. Check if the wireless device has been properly recognized through the Device Manager Window and check if the wireless device is set to Disabled by right-clicking it. Make sure it is set to Enabled.

A2 Verify whether the same network key (encryption key) has been entered for both the AP and the computer. The network key is an encryption key for encrypting the data transmitted between the AP and the computer. It is recommended setting the network key manually.

▶ Check the AP Settings

For the AP settings, refer to the User Guide provided by the AP manufacturer.

A3 Verify whether the environment is suitable for using a wireless LAN. The use of a wireless LAN may be restricted according to the environment and distance. Obstacles such as walls or doors affect the use of a wireless LAN. Install the AP in a high and open space, 50cm from the wall and far removed from any other radio signal sources.

A4 Verify whether the AP is operating properly.

• When the AP is not operating normally, turn off the AP, wait a short while, and turn it on again.
• Verify whether the AP's firmware is the most recent version. (Contact the AP manufacturer or the place where you purchased the AP for details of the AP firmware.)

A5 Verify whether the AP has been properly connected to the network. Verify whether the network is operating normally by connecting the wired network cable, which has been connected to the AP, to your computer.
A6 Check the network key settings (encryption key) again. When automatic code conversion (a passphrase function) has been selected and data communication is not functioning even with a normal wireless connection, it is recommended entering the network key (encryption key) manually.
A7 Check the AP settings as follows. (The following is recommended for a standard environment and thus may differ according to the specific wireless network environment.)

- When several APs are present simultaneously, check the channel settings for each AP. When different APs are using nearby channels, interference may occur between the electronic waves. Set the AP channels further apart from each other.

(Ex: Ch1, Ch5, Ch9, Ch13)

- When an AP's SSID (Service Set ID) option is set to "Hide", you cannot search for that AP on the computer. We recommend unselecting the "Hide" option for the AP. The SSID is a name used for distinguishing one wireless LAN from another wireless LAN.

• It is recommended using Long Preamble. Preamble is a signal for data transmission synchronization. Short Preamble may be supported by some types of APs but may cause compatibility problems.
• It is recommended using a static IP.
• Since static channel selection is more reliable than auto channel selection, it is recommended using a static channel.

When connecting to a computer-to-computer (Ad Hoc) network, I cannot connect to another computer on the same computer-to-computer network.

A1 Make sure that the security settings and network name of the computer-to-computer (Ad Hoc) network are correct.
A2 Check the TCP/IP properties of the computers to be connected through the computer-to-computer (Ad Hoc) network. All computers to be connected through the computer-to-computer (Ad Hoc) network should be configured so that their IP addresses are within the same subnet range.

- If the TCP/IP Settings are configured to DHCP, the address is automatically configured to an address within the subnet IP range. This will take about 2\~3 minutes.

- If the IP address is configured to a static IP in the TCP/IP properties, select Use the following IP address in the TCP/IP properties of the wireless adapter, configure an IP address between 10.0.0.1\~10.0.0.254, and a Subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, and try again.

- A fixed IP is recommended for a small-sized network.

- If you are using a DHCP IP address, the system boot time may be extended.

A3 You have to register the IP address allocated for the wireless adapter as a ‘Trusted IP’ in McAfee SecurityCenter.

Click McAfee SecurityCenter > Advanced menu > Configure > Internet and Network > Advanced > Trusted and Banned IPs, and register the IP address or IP address range as a Trusted IP address.

When using a computer-to-computer (Ad Hoc) network, sometimes I cannot search the access point.

A It may happen occasionally when you are using a computer-to-computer (Ad Hoc) network connection. Even if you cannot find some access points, the computer-to-computer (Ad Hoc) network is operating properly. Click Refresh to view the latest search result.

The network does not operate properly when both the wireless and the wired network connections are simultaneously configured with the same IP address.

A You cannot use the wireless and the wired network connections using the same IP address simultaneously. To use either the wireless or the wired network in turn with the same IP address, you have to Disable whichever network device will not be used in the network connection of the Control Panel.

The wireless LAN does not work properly when there is a device operating on an adjacent frequency in the vicinity of the product.

A1 Channel interference may occur when a wireless video transceiver or a microwave oven is being used. If you experience channel interference from other equipment, we recommended changing the channel for connecting to the AP. For more information about AP settings, refer to the User Manual supplied by the AP manufacturer.
A2 Since IEEE802.11g equipment operates in hybrid mode when there is active IEEE802.11b equipment, the data rate may be degraded.

Bluetooth

The Korean or Chinese characters in a business card received via Bluetooth are broken.

A1 If you send a business card including Korean or Chinese characters by selecting a Select a business card in the file (*.vcf, *.vcd) option, the characters on the received card will be broken.

This is because the contents of the business card file are not set to Korean or Chinese characters (CHARSET). To resolve this problem, edit the contents of the business card file manually as follows.

① Right-click over a business card file (*.vcf, *.vcd) to be sent and select Connect Program > Select Program.
② Select Notepad from the program list.
③ Edit the file as follows.

Example) "N:Magic Sens" => "N;CHARSET=KS_C_5601:Magic Sens"

For Korean, add "CHARSET=KS_C_5601"

For Chinese Simplified (CHS), add "CHARSET=gb2312"

For Chinese Traditional (CHT), add "CHARSET=Big5"

A2 Perform Send business card immediately in the Address Book of Microsoft Outlook or select Transmission by Outlook business card selection, and you will be able to transmit a business card without broken characters and without editing the VCF file.

About the Product Capacity Representation Standard

The capacity of the storage device (HDD, SSD) of the manufacturer is calculated assuming that 1KB=1,000 Bytes.

However, the operating system (Windows) calculates the storage device capacity assuming that 1KB=1,024 Bytes, and therefore the capacity representation of the HDD in Windows is smaller than the actual capacity due to the difference in capacity calculation. (E.g. For a 80GB HDD, Windows represents the capacity as 74.5GB)

In addition, the capacity representation in Windows may be even smaller because some programs such as Recovery Solution may reside in a hidden area of the HDD.

Glossary

The Glossary lists the terminologies used in this User Guide. For terminologies other than these, look in Windows Help.

Backup

A way to save the current data to restore it later if necessary. A backup is a way to restore computer data when the data or computer is damaged.

Client

This refers to a computer that uses a shared network resource provided by a server.

DDR SDRAM (Double Data Rate Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory)

DRAM is a memory type whose cells consist of a capacitor and transistor manufactured at a low price. SDRAM is a memory type whose performance has been improved by synchronizing the clock with the external CPU clock. DDR SDRAM is a memory type whose performance has been improved by doubling the operating speed of the SDRAM and is widely used nowadays. This computer uses DDR SDRAM.

Device Manager

An administrative tool used to manage computer devices. You can add or remove hardware or update a device driver using the Device Manager.

Direct X

An application interface developed to enable Windows application programs to access hardware devices at a very high speed. Since the operating speed of graphics, memory and sound cards must be very fast to provide high quality video and sound for games, Direct X enables faster control and interaction between applications and hardware devices. By using Direct X, the multimedia performance of Windows has been hugely improved.

Driver

Software that interacts between the hardware and the operating system. An operating system knows the hardware information and controls the hardware. In general, a driver is supplied with the corresponding hardware device.

DVD (Digital Versatile Disk)

DVD was developed to replace CD (compact disk). Although the shape and size of the disc are the same as that of a CD, the capacity of a DVD is at least 4.7GB while the capacity of a CD is 600MB. DVD video is digital unlike VHS (analog) video and supports MPEG2 compression and digital audio. To play a DVD, a DVD drive is required.

Firewall

A security system used to protect an internal network or intranet from external networks through an authentication procedure.

Hibernation Mode

A power mode that saves all data in memory to the hard disk and turns the CPU and hard disk off. When canceling Hibernation Mode, all application programs that were running are restored to their last state.

Icon

This refers to a small image that represents a file that users can use.

LAN (Local Area Network)

A communications network connecting computers, printers and other devices within a local area such as within a building. A LAN enables all connected devices to interact with other devices on the network. The current LAN uses the Ethernet media access control method developed in the early 1980s. To connect to an Ethernet, a network card called a LAN card, Ethernet card or network interface card is required. To exchange data between computers, a protocol is required besides the hardware equipment. Windows Vista uses TCP/IP as the default protocol.

LCD (Liquid Crystal Display)

There are Passive Matrix and Active Matrix LCD types. This computer uses the Active Matrix type LCD called a TFT LCD. Since an LCD is implemented by transistors instead of a cathode-ray tube unlike a CRT, its size can be slim. And because it does not blink, it reduces eye strain.

Network

A group of computers and devices, such as printers and scanners, connected by a communications link. A network can be either small or large and can be connected permanently through cables or temporarily through telephone lines or wireless links. The biggest network is the Internet, a worldwide network.

Network Administrator

A user who plans, configures and manages network operations. Sometimes, a network administrator is called a system administrator.

Notification Area

This refers to the right area of the Taskbar including program icons such as the volume control, the power options and the time.

Power Schemes

This refers to a pre-determined power management option group. For example, you can set the time the computer waits before entering Standby Mode, or before the monitor or hard drive turns off. The settings are saved as a power scheme.

Quick Launch

This refers to a toolbar that can be configured so that you can launch a program such as Internet Explorer or display the Windows Desktop with one click. You can add any icon to the quick launch area of the Taskbar and launch frequently used program by clicking that icon.

Server

In general, a server refers to a computer that provides shared resources for network users.

Share

This refers to setting a resource of a computer such as a folder or printer so that other users can also use it.

Shared Folder

A folder that can be used by other users on the network.

Sleep Mode

A power mode that enables computers to save power consumption when they are not being used. When a computer is in Sleep Mode, the data on the computer memory is not saved to the hard disk. If the power is tuned off, the data in memory will be lost.

System File

System Files refer to files that are read and used by the Windows operating system. In general, system files must not be deleted or moved.

USB (Universal Serial Bus)

This refers to a serial interface standard developed to replace the conventional interface standards such as Serial and PS/2. While USB 1.1 supports 12Mbps (12 million bits per second), USB 2.0 supports a data rate that is 40 times (480Mpbs) faster than that of USB 1.1. The data rate of USB 2.0 is equivalent to that of IEEE1394. Therefore USB 2.0 is used for A/V devices supported by IEEE 1394 and a 2nd HDD and CDRW that require a high data rate.

Windows

The name of an operating system developed by the Microsoft Corporation. Windows Vista is installed on this computer.

Windows Media Player

A multimedia program included with Windows. Using this program, you can play a media file, create an audio CD, listen to a radio broadcast, search and manage media files, and copy files to a portable device, etc.
