Operating Basics
Wireless communications
The computer’s wireless communication function supports both Wireless
LAN and Bluetooth devices.
Bluetooth is provided with some models in this series.
Wireless LAN
The Wireless LAN is compatible with other LAN systems based on Direct
Sequence Spread Spectrum/Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing
radio technology that complies with IEEE802.11 wireless LAN standard
(Revision A, B or G) and Turbo Mode.
Supported features. It supports the following features:
■ Automatic Transmit Rate Select mechanism in the transmit range of 54,
48, 36, 24, 18, 12, 9 and 6 Mbit/s (Revision A and G, Revision A/B, B/G,
A/B/G combo type).
■ Automatic Transmit Rate Select mechanism in the transmit range of
11, 5.5, 2 and 1 Mbit/s (Revision B).
■ Automatic Transmit Rate Select mechanism in the transmit range of
108, 96, 72, 48, 36, 24, 18 and 12 Mbit/s (Turbo mode, Revision A/B/G
combo type).
■ Frequency Channel Selection (Revision A/Turbo Mode: 5 GHz,
Revision B/G: 2.4GHz)
■ Roaming over multiple channels
■ Card Power Management
■ Atheros Super G™ or Super AG™ technology (Atheros module type).
■ Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data encryption, based on the 152 bit
encryption algorithm (Atheros module type).
■ Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data encryption, based on the 128 bit
encryption algorithm (Atheros module type).
■ Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) data encryption, based on 256 bit
encryption algorithm (Atheros module type).
Security
■ Be sure to enable WEP (encryption) function. Otherwise your computer
will allow the illegal access by outsider through wireless LAN to cause
illegal instruction, eavesdropping, and loss or destruction of stored
data. TOSHIBA strongly recommends the customer to enable the WEP
function.
■ TOSHIBA is not liable for the eavesdropping of data due to the use of
Wireless LAN and the damage thereof.
