A WLAN is a network in which a mobile user can connect to a local area network (LAN) through a wireless (radio) connection. So there is no need anymore to pull cables or wires through walls and ceilings. The Sony WLAN supports all normal Ethernet activities, but with the added benefits of mobility and roaming. You can still access information, internet/intranet and network resources, even in the middle of a meeting, or as you move from one place to another. You can communicate without an Access Point, this means that you can communicate between a limited number of computers (computer-to-computer), or you can communicate with an Access Point, which allows you to create a full infrastructure network (infrastructure). * Depending on your model. In some countries, using WLAN products may be restricted by the local regulations (e. g. Therefore, before activating the WLAN functionality, read the Regulations Guide booklet carefully. Channel selection is explained further in this manual (see How to select a Wireless LAN channel (page 55)). The Access Point bridges the wireless and wired LAN and acts as a central controller for the Wireless LAN. The Access Point coordinates transmission and reception from multiple wireless devices within a specific range. To communicate with an Access Point (infrastructure), proceed as follows: 1 2 Set up the Access Point as described in the manual delivered with the Access Point and turn on the Access Point. If your computer supports Bluetooth technology, the Wireless Device Switch dialog box appears. Select the Enable 2. 4 GHz Wireless LAN check box and deselect the Enable Bluetooth Device check box, then click the OK button. Right-click the network icon in the taskbar displaying Wireless Network Connection. If the Access Point is not displayed, click the Refresh network list link. Once you are connected, you see the word Connected appear behind the name of the network. For more information about setting up an access point, see the documentation supplied with your Access Point. 3 4 5 6 nN 55 Using your VAIO computer How to select a Wireless LAN channel In an 802. 11b/g configuration, channels 1 to 13 can be used. (a) With an Access Point ("Infrastructure") The channel used will be the channel selected by the Access Point. For details on how to select the channel that will be used by the Access Point, please refer to the corresponding instruction manual. (b) Without Access Point ("computer-to-computer") If the Wireless connection is initiated by the VAIO computer, channel 11 will be selected. If the Wireless connection is initiated by a peer Wireless LAN equipment, the Wireless LAN communication will make use of the channel selected by the peer Wireless LAN equipment. In France, outdoors, Wireless LAN connections are only allowed on certain channels. For details, please refer to the Regulations Guide booklet. nN 56 Using your VAIO computer Troubleshooting Wireless LAN if you cannot use the Wireless LAN function, make sure the wireless switch is turned on before checking the following points.
