■Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data encryption, based on the 128 bit encryption algorithm (Atheros module type).

■11a, 11b, 11g and 11n wireless are based on IEEE 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11n respectively. The IEEE 802.11n specification has not been finalized and is currently in draft release. The TOSHIBA 11a/b/g/n Wireless LAN Adaptors are based on the draft release version 2.0, of the IEEE 802.11n specification. An adaptor with 11a/b, 11a/b/g or 11a/b/g/n can communicate on any of its supported formats; the actual connection will be based on the access point to which it connects.

■Connection compatibility with the wireless equipment in draft 11n mode is not guaranteed.

■The draft 11n function cannot be used with WEP/TKIP. Draft 11n mode can be used only with WPA-PSK(AES) mode or no security mode.

Security

■Be sure to enable encryption function. Otherwise your computer will allow the illegal access by outsider through wireless LAN to cause illegal instruction, 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 Wireless LAN and the damage thereof.

Wireless communication switch

You can enable or disable RF transmission(Wireless LAN) functions on and off, with this switch. No transmissions are sent or received when the switch is off. Slide the switch toward the right of the computer to turn it on and toward the left of the computer to turn it off.
