Wireless LAN
(wireless network - abbreviation = WLAN)
Your notebook may contain a wireless LAN module of the type "Intel® Pro Wireless Mini PCI" (optional). This module allows you to set up a wireless-based network, and to connect to an existing wireless network. It works according to the IEEE802.11b+g standard.
WLAN technology allows users to set up wireless connections inside a local area (e.g. in a company or campus building, or in a public building such as an airport). WLANs can be used in temporary offices, in locations where it is not possible to set up extensive cable installations, or to extend an existing LAN so that users in different parts of a building can work at different times.
There are two different ways to operate a WLAN.
In fixed WLANs, wireless stations (devices with radio network cards or external modems) set up connections with wireless access points, which act as bridges between the stations and the existing network backbone. In Peer-to-Peer (ad hoc) WLANs several users can set up a temporary network within a limited area such as a conference room, without using access points, and providing there is no need to use network resources.
In 1997 the IEEE confirmed the standard 802.11 for WLANs; this set a data transfer rate of from 1 to 2 Mbit/s (Megabits per second). With 802.11b, the new governing standard, the maximum data transfer rate is 11 Mbit/s over a frequency band of 2.4 GHz (Gigahertz).
Additional safety notes for units with wireless LAN
If a wireless LAN module is integrated in your notebook, it is essential that you observe the following safety information when using your notebook:
- Switch off the Notebook when you are in an aircraft or while driving a car.
- If you are in a hospital, an operating room or close to an electronic medical system, switch off the wireless components in the Notebook! The radio waves which are transmitted could disrupt the working of the medical equipment.
- Keep the Notebook at least 20cm away from a heart pacemaker, otherwise there is a risk that the radio waves could disrupt the normal working of the pacemaker.
- The radio waves which are transmitted could give rise to interference noise in hearing aids.
- When its radio components are switched on, do not place the Notebook close to inflammable gases or in an environment which could be at risk of explosion (e.g. paint shop), since the radio waves which are transmitted could set of a fire or an explosion.
- The range of the wireless connection depends on the environmental and other ambient conditions.
- When transferring data over a wireless connection, unauthorized Third Parties can also receive the data.
MAXDATA Computer AG is not responsible for disruptions to radio or television reception which are caused by unauthorized alterations to this unit. MAXDATA also accepts no responsibility for the replacement or the exchange of connecting cables and units which were not specified by MAXDATA Computer AG. The user alone is responsible for the elimination of disruptions caused by this type of unauthorized alteration; he is also responsible for the replacement or the exchange of the units.
