**The communication ranges shown above will increase or decrease depending on factors such as number of walls, reflective material, or interference from external RF sources.
***Encryption with network key (WEP) is performed using the above number of bits, however, users can set 40 bits/ 104 bits after subtracting the fixed length of 24 bits.
****Depending on practical environments, the allowable number of computers to be connected may be decreased.
