- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the

following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference,

and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including

interference that may cause undesired operation.

FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the

party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this

equipment.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

FCC / IC Radiation Exposure Statement:

This device complies with FCC RF Exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled

environment, under 47 CFR 2.1093 paragraph (d)(2). This transmitter must not be

co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. This

device was tested for typical lap held conditions that may occur during normal notebook

and PDA use. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements the user shall use this

product only in intended application as documented in this manual.

IEEE 802.11b or 802.11g operation of this product in the U.S.A. is firmware-limited to

channels 1 through 11.

Industry Canada Statement

Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

1) This device may not cause interference and

2) This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause

undesired operation of the device

What is Wireless LAN?

Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) systems offer a great number of

advantages over traditional wired systems. WLAN is flexible and easy to setup

and manage. They are also more economical than wired LAN systems.

Using radio frequency (RF) technology, WLAN transmit and receive data through

the air. WLAN combine data connectivity with user mobility. For example, users

can roam from a conference room to their office without being disconnected from

the LAN.

Using WLAN, users can conveniently access-shared information, and network

administrators can configure and augment networks without installing or moving

network cables.

WLAN technology provides users with many convenient and cost saving features:

• Mobility: WLAN provide LAN users with access to real-time information

anywhere in their organization, providing service opportunities that are

impossible with wired networks.

• Ease of Installation: Installing is easy for novice and expert users alike,

eliminating the need to install network cables in walls and ceilings.

• Scalability: WLAN can be configured in a variety of topologies to adapt to

specific applications and installations. Configurations are easily changed

and range from peer-to-peer networks suitable for a small number of users

to full infrastructure networks of thousands of users roaming over a broad

area.

Wireless LAN Modes

Wireless LANs can be configured in one of two ways:

Ad-hoc

Networking

Also known as a peer-to-peer network, an ad-hoc

network is one that allows all workstations and

computers in the network to act as servers to all other

users on the network. Users on the network can share

files, print to a shared printer, and access the Internet

with a shared modem. However, with ad-hoc

networking, users can only communicate with other

wireless LAN computers that are in the wireless LAN

workgroup, and are within range.

Infrastructure

Networking

Infrastructure networking differs from ad-hoc

networking in that it includes an access point. Unlike

the ad-hoc structure where users on the LAN contend

the shared bandwidth, on an infrastructure network the

access point can manage the bandwidth to maximize

bandwidth utilization.

Additionally, the access point enables users on a

wireless LAN to access an existing wired network,

allowing wireless users to take advantage of the wired

networks resources, such as Internet, email, file

transfer, and printer sharing.

Infrastructure networking has the following advantages

over ad-hoc networking:

• Extended range: each wireless LAN computer

within the range of the access point can

communicate with other wireless LAN computers

within range of the access point.

• Roaming: the access point enables a wireless

LAN computer to move through a building and still

be connected to the LAN.

• Wired to wireless LAN connectivity: the access

point bridges the gap between wireless LANs and

their wired counterparts.

Notes on Wireless LAN Configuration

When configuring a wireless LAN (WLAN), be sure to note the following points:

• Optimize the performance of the WLAN by ensuring that the distance

between access points is not too far. In most buildings, WLAN Adapters

operate within a range of 100 ~ 300 feet, depending on the thickness and

structure of the walls.

• Radio waves can pass through walls and glass but not metal. If there is

interference in transmitting through a wall, it may be that the wall has

reinforcing metal in its structure. Install another access point to circumvent

this problem.

• Floors usually have metal girders and metal reinforcing struts that interfere

with WLAN transmission.

This concludes the first chapter. The next chapter deals with the hardware

installation of the Adapter.
