Security
◆Be sure to enable encryption function. Otherwise your computer will allow
the illegal access by outsider through wireless LAN to cause illegal instruc-
tion, eavesdropping, and loss or destruction of stored data. TOSHIBA
strongly recommends the customer to enable the encryption function.
◆TOSHIBA is not liable for the eavesdropping of data due to the use of Wire-
less LAN and the damage thereof.
Bluetooth® wireless technology
Bluetooth
®
wireless technology eliminates the need for cables between electronic
devices such as desktop computers, printers and mobile phones. You cannot use
the built-in Bluetooth functions and an optional Bluetooth Adapter simultaneously.
Bluetooth® wireless technology has the following features:
Worldwide operation
The Bluetooth radio transmitter and receiver operates in the 2.45 GHz band, which
is license-free and compatible with radio systems in most countries in the world.
Radio links
You can easily establish links between two or more devices. The link is main-
tained even if the devices are not within line of sight.
Security
Two advanced security mechanisms ensure a high level of security:
◆Authentication prevents access to critical data and makes it impossible to
falsify the origin of a message.
◆Encryption prevents eavesdropping and maintains link privacy.
