IEEE 802.11b Wireless LAN
Wireless communication occurs over radio waves rather than a wire. Like a cordless telephone, a wireless LAN uses radio signals instead of wires to exchange data. A wireless network eliminates the need for expensive and intrusive wiring to connect computers throughout the home or office. Mobile users can remain connected to the network even when carrying their laptop to different locations in the home or office.
Each computer on a wireless LAN requires an adapter described in “Optional Accessories” on page 4:
•For wireless laptops connections, use a Motorola PCC11b Wireless Card in the PCMCIA slot.
•For wireless desktop connections, use a Motorola USB11b Wireless Adapter to connect your PC USB port.
Sample wireless network connections
