Appendix F

Wireless communication is often subject to local radio regulations. Although Wireless LAN networking products have been designed for operation in the license- free 2.4 GHz band, local radio regulations may impose limitations on the use of Wireless communication equipment.

NOTE: Refer to the flyer Information to the User for regulatory information that may apply in your country/region.

The range of the Wireless signal is related to the Transmit Rate of the Wireless communication. Communications at lower Transmit range may travel longer distances.

NOTE: The range values listed in Table F-5 are typical distances as measured at the Toshiba Wireless LAN laboratories. These values provide rule-of-thumb guides. They may vary according to the actual radio conditions at the location where the Wireless LAN product is installed.

The range of your Wireless devices can be affected when the antennas are placed near metal surfaces and solid high-density materials.

Range is also affected by obstacles in the signal path of the radio that may either absorb or reflect the radio signal.
