IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR ALL USERS OR DISTRIBUTORS:
Intel wireless LAN adapters are engineered, manufactured, tested, and quality checked to ensure that they meet all
necessary local and governmental regulatory agency requirements for the regions that they are designated and/or
marked to ship into. Because wireless LANs are generally unlicensed devices that share spectrum with radars,
satellites, and other licensed and unlicensed devices, it is sometimes necessary to dynamically detect, avoid, and
limit usage to avoid interference with these devices. In many instances Intel is required to provide test data to prove
regional and local compliance to regional and governmental regulations before certification or approval to use the
product is granted. Intel's wireless LAN's EEPROM, firmware, and software driver are designed to carefully control
parameters that affect radio operation and to ensure electromagnetic compliance (EMC). These parameters include,
without limitation, RF power, spectrum usage, channel scanning, and human exposure.
For these reasons Intel cannot permit any manipulation by third parties of the software provided in binary format
with the wireless LAN adapters (e.g., the EEPROM and firmware). Furthermore, if you use any patches, utilities, or
code with the Intel wireless LAN adapters that have been manipulated by an unauthorized party (i.e., patches,
utilities, or code (including open source code modifications) which have not been validated by Intel), (i) you will be
solely responsible for ensuring the regulatory compliance of the products, (ii) Intel will bear no liability, under any
theory of liability for any issues associated with the modified products, including without limitation, claims under the
warranty and/or issues arising from regulatory non-compliance, and (iii) Intel will not provide or be required to assist
in providing support to any third parties for such modified products.
Note: Many regulatory agencies consider Wireless LAN adapters to be "modules", and accordingly, condition system-
level regulatory approval upon receipt and review of test data documenting that the antennas and system
configuration do not cause the EMC and radio operation to be non-compliant.
