The menus and screens of the WLAN Handsets 2210/2211 display in English only. International characters are supported for BCM prompts, depending on the market profile. BCM-based prompts display in English, French, and Spanish.

Wired Equivalent Privacy

The WLAN Handsets 2210/2211 support Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) as defined by the 802.11b specification. WEP increases the security of the wireless LAN to a level similar to a wired Ethernet LAN. WEP is turned on and off using the APs.

Loss of signal

If a wireless handset is out of range of all APs, it waits 20 seconds for a signal to return. If a signal is not re-acquired within 20 seconds, the wireless handset loses connection to the BCM and any calls are dropped. When the wireless handset comes back into range of an AP, it re-establishes a connection to the BCM and goes through the system registration process.

Note: If a wireless handset is out of contact with the system for four seconds during the UNIStim messaging process (worst case scenario), then a UNIStim failure could result. This can cause the wireless handset to lose the UNIStim association with the BCM.
