I Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data encryption, based on the 152 bit encryption algorithm (Atheros module type). I Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data encryption, based on the 128 bit encryption algorithm (Intel module type). I Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) data encryption, based on 256 bit encryption algorithm (Atheros module type). For Wireless Lan cards with IEEE802. 11 Wireless LAN standard (Revision A, B or G): The transmission speed over the wireless LAN and the distance over which wireless LAN can reach may vary depending on surrounding electromagnetic environment, obstacles, access point design and configuration, and client design and software/hardware configurations. The Transmit Rate (xx Mbit/s) is the theoretical maximum speed under the IEEE802. 11 (a/b/g) standard. The actual transmission speed will be lower than the theoretical maximum speed. To use the Atheros SuperAGTM or SuperGTM function, your client and access point must support the corresponding feature. Performance of these functions may vary depending on the format of data transmitted. Security I Be sure to enable WEP (encryption) function. Otherwise your computer will be open to allow the illegal access by an outsider through the wireless network connection. If this occurs the intruder can eavesdrop and/or cause loss or destruction of stored data. In view of this TOSHIBA strongly recommend the customer to enable the WEP function. I TOSHIBA is not liable for the eavesdropping of data due to the use of Wireless LAN and the damage thereof. User's Manual 4-28 Operating Basics 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 built-in Bluetooth functions and an optional Bluetooth PC card simultaneously. Bluetooth wireless technology has the following features: Worldwide operation The Bluetooth radio transmitter and receiver operates in the 2. 45 GHz 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. The link is maintained even if the devices are not within line of sight. Security Two advanced security mechanisms ensure a high level of security: I Authentication prevents access to critical data and makes it impossible to falsify the origin of a message. I Encryption prevents eavesdropping and maintains link privacy. Wireless communication switch You can enable or disable Wireless LAN and Bluetooth functions, with the on/off switch. Slide the switch to the right to turn it on and to the left to turn it off. I Turn the computer off when you enter an airplane and check the carrier's regulations before you use a computer on board. Wireless communication indicator The wireless communication indicator indicates the status of the wireless communication functions. Indicator status Indicator off Indicator glows Indication Wireless communication switch is set to off. Wireless LAN or Bluetooth is turned on by an application. If you used the Task Bar to disable wireless LAN, restart the computer or follow the procedures below to enable the system to recognize wireless LAN.
