FAQ for Wi-Fi

A. Compatibility

A1: Should I use equipment with the same brand as the IEEE802.11b WLAN Adapter’s to enable the wireless communi- cation?

This is not necessary. IEEE802.11b WLAN Adapter is Wi-Fi certified which means that it will work well with differing brands of equipment as long as the equipment is also Wi-Fi certified.

A2: Can I connect IEEE802.11b WLAN Adapter to other devices using Bluetooth?

No, you can only connect the IEEE802.11b WLAN Adapter to other IEEE802.11b equipment.

B. Wireless LAN Connectivity

B1: How do I form a wireless network?

Typically, you can form a wireless network by connecting Access Points. Different Access Points should have different channels. Every devices connected to the network should have the same SSID. When you are using Access Points, set the mode to “Infra- structure” mode. Without Access Points, you can still build a network where adapters communicate peer-to-peer using a shared SSID. When you are not using Access Points, change the operating mode to be “802.11Ad Hoc”. To set the operating mode, click Start, Set- tings, System, Wireless LAN Utility, then Config.

B2: How can I connect my Toshiba Pocket PC e800/e805 to the usable Wireless Network?

Click Start, Settings, System, Wireless LAN Utility, Scan to view Scan Page where you can find the usable Wireless Network. If you cannot see all the networks you are expecting, please click “Rescan” to see the list of usable Wireless Networks. Choose one Wireless Network you want and double click the BSSID to connect to the net- work. Once the network is chosen, you need to configure the IEEE802.11b WLAN adapter.
