The IEEE 802. 11n specification has not been finalized and is currently in draft release. The TOSHIBA 11a/b/g/n Wireless LAN Adaptors are based on the draft release version 2. 0, of the IEEE 802. 11n specification. An adaptor with 11a/b, 11a/b/g or 11a/b/g/n can communicate on any of its supported formats; the actual connection will be based on the access point to which it connects. Connection compatibility with the wireless equipment in draft 11n mode is not guaranteed. Draft 11n mode can be used only with WPA-PSK(AES) mode or no security mode. 4-30 User's Manual L350/L350D Security Be sure to enable encryption function.
