Notes on using Wireless LAN

Sony Wireless LAN devices support the IEEE 802.11b standard. Devices connecting to a Wireless LAN using the IEEE 802.11a standard cannot connect to devices using the IEEE 802.11b standard.

Wireless LAN communication occurs on divided frequency bands known as channels. Third-party Wireless LAN Access Point channels may be preset to different channels from Sony devices.

If using a Wireless LAN Access Point, refer to connectivity information contained in those instructions.
