If your notebook includes a wireless on-off button, you can connect by radio to an

802.11wireless local area network (LAN) and access notebooks and other resources on the network.

A wireless network provides all the functions of a typical “wired” network, but also provides for “roaming.” Since your notebook connects to the network by radio rather than through cables, you can move from place to place within the network—from your office to a conference room, for example—and remain on the network the entire time.

To prepare for connections

Before you can connect your notebook to a particular 802.11 wireless network, you have to configure the notebook for the specific wireless connection.

Connecting to an existing wireless network

You can connect to an access point that gives you access to a local area network, or you can connect directly to other notebooks in an “ad hoc” network.

1.Right-click the wireless network connection icon in the taskbar, then select View Available Wireless Networks from the pop-up menu.
