■ The transmission speed over the wireless LAN, and the distance over
which the wireless LAN can reach, may vary depending on
surrounding electromagnetic environment, obstacles, access point
design and configuration, client design and software/hardware
configurations. The transmission rate described is the theoretical
maximum speed as specified under the appropriate standard - the
actual transmission speed will be lower than the theoretical maximum
speed.
■ To enable or disable wireless communication, use the Hot Key
FN + F8. For more information see the Hot keys section in Chapter 5.
