Establishing wireless connections

The "Switch wireless devices" window enables you to select a wireless connection: Bluetooth, Wireless LAN, or Bluetooth and Wireless LAN function.

Bluetooth® technology is designed for a short-range connection of up to 32 feet (10 meters), while Wireless LAN technology has a wider connection range of up to 328 feet (100 meters). The actual range of wireless LAN technology is dependent on many factors including the features and capabilities of a wireless access point (if used), environmental conditions, and other factors. Your computer is capable of both Bluetooth and Wireless LAN connections. For more information about Wireless LAN, see Using wireless network connections (selected models only).
