KEYBOARD

Caring for your Keyboard

The keyboard of your computer is a very sensitive instrument. It is made up of many switches that are activated when you press on the keys. The keyboard is a major component of the heat dissipation system in a Tablet PC. Due to heat and size considerations the keyboard is not sealed. Because the keys are so close together, it is not easy for the user to see when liq uids have fallen onto the circuitry below the keys.

Attempting to clean the keyboard with a spray on cleaner or rag soaked with cleaner the liquid can drip onto the circuitry sight unseen. Once the liquid seeps between the layers of circuitry, it can cause corrosion or other damage to the circuits. This can result in keys which no longer operate, or which, when pressed, record the wrong characters and other similar failures.

There is no repair for this problem other than replacement. The solution is to become aware of the issue and take appropriate steps to protect your keyboard.

To clean the keyboard, use a rag dampened slightly with cleaning solution. Use extre me care to prevent liquid from dripping between the keys. Spraying directly on the keys should be avoided. The spray should be applied first to the cloth, and then the cloth wiped over the keys.

Before using the WLAN device, read this manual carefully to ensure it's correct operation. Keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.

Wireless LAN Devices Covered by this Document

This document is applicable to systems containing one of the following two devices. Most of the procedures are identical. Sections that differ between the two devices have been noted in the text:



Intel PROSet Wir eless LAN card (WM3B2915ABG)



Atheros Wireless LAN card (WLL4070)

Characteristics of the WLAN Device



The WLAN device is a Mini-PCI card attached to the mainboard of the mobile computer.



It is a dual-band radio that operates in two license-free RF bands, therefore eliminating the need to pr ocure an FCC license to operate. It operates in the 2.4 GHz Industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) RF band. Additionally, the Atheros device operates in the lo wer and middle bands of the 5 GHz Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure (UNII) bands (for IEEE802.11a).



The Atheros and Intel(WM3B2915ABG) WLANs are capable of three operating modes, IEE802.11a, IEE802. 11b and IEEE802.11g, wireless LAN standards governed by the IEEE(Institute of Electronics and Electrical Engineers). The Intel(WM3B2200GB) and Broadcom WLANs are capable of two operating modes, IEEE802. 11b and IEEE802.11g. The Intel(WM3B2100) is capable of one

operating mode, IEEE802.11b.



Encoding of data is modulated using Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) and Complementary Code Keying (CCK) when the WLAN device is operating in IEEE 802.11b mode and Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) when operating in IEEE802.11a or IEEE802.11g mode.



The WLAN device is Wi-Fi certified and operates at the maximum data transfer rate of 54 Mbps in IEEE802.11a or IEEE802.11g mode and 11 Mbps in IEEE802.11b mode.



The maximum communication range indoors is approximately 80 feet (25 meters). However, that range will increase or decrease depending on factors such as number of walls, reflective material, or interference from external RF sources.



The specific WLAN devices support some or all of the following encryption methods - WEP, TKIP, AES, LEAP, EAP-TLS and PEAP encryption.

WIRELESS LAN MODES USING THIS DEVICE

Ad Hoc Mode

(See Figure 5-1)

"Ad Hoc Mode" refers to a wireless network architecture where wireless network connectivity between multiple computers is established without a central wireless network device, typically known as Access Point(s). Connectivity is accomplished using only client devices in a peer-to-peer fashion. That is wh y A d H oc networks are also known as peer-to-peer networks. Ad Hoc networks are an easy and inexpensive method for establishing network connectivity between multiple computers.

Ad Hoc mode requires that the SSID, network authentication, and encryption key settings are identically configured on all computers in the Ad Hoc network.

Figure 5-1. Ad Hoc Mode Network

T Series.book Page 95 Wednesday, July 28, 2004 3:35 PM

W Irele s s L A N User’ s G u ide

Access Point (Infrastructure) M ode

(See Figure 5-2)

Infrastructure mode refers to a wireless network architecture in which devices communicate with wireless or wired network devices by communicating through an Access Point. In infrastructure mode, wireless devices can communicate with each other or can communicate with a wired network. Corporate wireless networks operate in infrastructure mode because they require access to the wired LAN in order to access computers, devices, and services such as file servers, printers, and databases.

How to Handle This Device

The WLAN device comes pre-installed in your mobile computer. Under normal circumstances, it should not be necessary for you to remove or re-install it. T he Operating System that your mobile computer comes with has been pre-configured to support the WLAN device.

WIRELESS NETW ORK C ONSIDERATIO NS



The Intel (W M3B2200BG) and Broadcom WLAN devices are dual-mode wireless network cards (supports IEEE802.11b/g) ; the Atheros and Intel (WM3B2915ABG) WLAN devices support IEEE802. 11a/b/g; the Intel(WM3B2100) W LAN device supports

802.11b.



The Intel and Broadcom WLAN devices oper ate in the

2.4GH z I SM band; the Atheros WLAN device also operates in the 5 GH z lower and middle UNII bands.



The maximum range of the WLAN device indoors is typically 80 feet (25 meters). Please note that the maximum range you achieve may be shorter or longer than 80 feet, depending on factors such as access point transmit power, number and density of obstructions, or external RF interference.



Microwave ovens, cordless phones, and wireless cameras may interfere with the operation of WL AN device as microwave ovens operate in the same 2.4 GH z frequency range that IEEE802.11b/g devices operate in. Interference by microwaves does not occur with IEEE802.11a radio which operates in the 5 GH z RF band.



Wireless devices that transmit in the 2.4 GH z frequency range may interfere with the operation of W LAN devices in IEE E802.11b/g modes. Symptoms of interference include reduced throughput, intermittent disconnects, and large amounts of frame errors. It is HI GH LY recommended that these interfering devices be powered off to ensure the proper operation of the WLAN device.

Troubleshooting

Causes and countermeasures for troubles you may encounter while using your wireless LAN are described in the following table.

Problem Possible Cause Possible Solution

Unavailable network connection

Incorrect network name (SSID) or network key

Weak received signal strength and/or link quality

The WLAN device has been deactivated or disabled

The computer to be connected is turned off

RF interference from Access Points or other wireless networks

Ad hoc connection: verify that the network names (SSID’s) and network

keys (WEP) of all computers to be connected have been configured correctly. SSID’s and WEP key values must be identical on each machine.

Access Point (Infrastructure) connection: set the network name (SSID) and network key to the same values as those of the access point.

Set the Network Authentication value identically to that of the Access Point. Please consult your network administrator for this value, if necessary.

For the method of setting network authentication, refer to the following page:·”Assigning parameters” on page 98·

Ad hoc connection: Retry connection after shortening the distance to the destination computer or removing any obstacles for better sight.

Access Point (Infrastructure) connection: Retry connection after shortening the distance to the access point or removing any obstacles for better sight.

Check if the wireless switch is turned ON. Also verify “Disable Radio” is not checked in “Network setting” window. Refer to “Starting Transmission” on page 96.

Check if the computer to be connected is turned ON.

The use of identical or overlapping RF channels can cause interference with the operation of the WLAN device. Change the channel of your Access Point to a channel that does not overlap with the interfering device.

104

Wireless network authentication has failed

Incorrectly configured network settings

Incorrect IP address configuration

Re-check your Network Authentication, Encryption, and Security settings. Incorrectly configured security settings such as an incorrectly typed WEP key, a mis-configured LEAP username, or an incorrectly chosen authentication method will cause the LAN device to associate but not authenticate to the wireless network.

Recheck the configuration of your network settings.

For the method of checking, refer to the following page:·“Connection to the Network” on page 101.

This only applies to networks using static IP addresses. Please contact your network administrator for the correct settings.

Wireless LAN Glossary

WIreless LAN User’s Guide

Ad Hoc Mode

Ad Hoc Mode refers to a wireless network architecture where wireless network connectivity between multiple computers is established without a central wireless network device, typically known as Access Points. Connectivity is accomplished using only client devices in a peer-to-peer fashion. For details, refer to “Ad hoc connection” on page 94.

Channel

Range of narrow-band frequencies used by the WLAN device to transmit data. IEEE802.11b/g - 11 channels, 22 MHz wide channels.

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)

A protocol tha t pro vides a mean s to d ynamicall y allocat e IP addresses to computers on a local area network.

DNS (Domain Name System)

A data query service that provides a mechanism with which to translate host names into Internet addresses.

IEEE802.11a

Wireless LAN standard that supports a maximum data rate of 54 Mbps. 802.11a devices operate in the 5 GHz lower and middle UNII bands.

IEEE802.11b

Wireless LAN standard that supports a maximum data rate of 11 Mbps. 802.11b devices operate in the 2.4 GHz ISM band.

Access point

Wireless network device used to bridge wireless and wired network traffic.

IP address

The logical 32-bit host address defined by the Internet Protocol that uniquely identifies a c o mputer on a network. The IP address is usually expressed in dotted decimal notation.

LAN (Local Area Network)

A LAN or Local Area Network is a computer network (or data communications network) which is confined to a limited geographical area.

MAC address (Media Access Control Address)

A MAC address (also called an Ethernet address or IEEE MAC address) is the 48-bit address (typically written as twelve hexadecimal digits, 0 through 9 and A through F, or as six hexadecimal numbers separated by periods or colons, e.g., 0080002012ef, 0:80:0:2:20:ef) which uniquely identifies a computer that has an Ethe rnet interface.

MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit)

The maximum size of data which can be transmitted at one time in networks including the Internet. In an environment whose maximum size of data is too large to correctly receive data, normal co mmunications can be restored by setting the size of MTU to a smaller value.

Network key

Data that is used for encrypting data in data communication. The personal computer uses the same network key both for data encryption and decryption, therefore, it is necessary to set the same network key as the other side of communication.

Network name (SSID: Security Set Identifier)

When a wireless LAN network is configured, grouping is performed to avoid interference or data theft. This grouping is performed with “Network name (SSID)”. In order to improve security, the network key is set allowing no communication unless “Network name (SSID)” coincides with the network key.

Open system authentication

Null authentication method specified in the 802.11 standard that performs no authentication checks on a wireless client before allowing it to associate.

PPPoE (Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet)

A method of allowing the authentication protocol adopted in telephone line connection (PPP) to be used over an Ethernet.

Protocol

A procedure or rule of delivering data among computers. Ordered data communication is allowed by making all conditions required for communication including the method of data transmission/reception and actions upon communication errors into procedures.

105

T Series.book Page 106 Wednesday, July 28, 2004 3:35 PM

Shared key authentication

802.11 network authentication method in which the AP

sends the client device a challenge text packet that the client must then encrypt with the correct WEP key and return to the AP. If the client has the wrong key or no key, authentication will fail and the cli e nt will not be allowed to associate with the AP. Shared key authentication is not considered secure, because a hacker who detects both the clear-text challenge and the same challenge encrypted with a WEP key can decipher the WEP key.

SSID (Service Set Identifier)

Service Set Identifier, a 32-character unique identifier attached to the header of packets sent ov er a WLAN that acts as a password when a mobile device tries to connect to the BSS. The SSID differentiates one WLAN from another, so all access points and all devices attempting to connect to a specific WLAN must use the same SSID . A device will not be permitted to join the BSS unless it can provide the unique SSID. Because the SSID is broadcast in plain text, it does not supply any security to the network.

Subnet mask

TCP-IP network is controlled by being di vided int o multiple smaller networks (subnets). IP address consists of the subnet address and the address of each computer. Subnet mask defines how many bits of IP address comprise the subnet address. The same value shall be set among computers communicating with each other.

TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol)

A standard protocol of the Internet.

Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi, or Wireless Fidelity, is a set of standards for wireless local area networks (WLAN) based on the IEEE

802.11 specifications. Certified products can use the

official Wi-Fi logo, which indicates that the product is interoperable with any other product also showing that logo.

106

T Series.book Page 107 Wednesday, July 28, 2004 3:35 PM

IP address information

IP addressing is much more complicated than can be briefly explained in this document. You are advised to consult with your network administrator for additional information.

If IP address is unknown, set IP address as follows: If you have an access point (DHCP server) on the

network, set the IP address as follows: [Obtain an IP address automatically]

A DHCP server is a server that automatically assigns IP addresses to computers or other devices in the network. There is no DHCP server for the AdHoc network.

WIreless LAN User’s Guide

If the IP address is already assigned to the computer in the network, ask the network administrator to check the IP address to be set for the computer.

If no access point is found in the network: An IP address is expressed with four values in the range

between 1 and 255. Set the each computer as follows: The value in paren-

theses is a subnet mask. <Example> Computer A: 192.168.100.2 (255.255.255.0) Computer B: 192.168.100.3 (255.255.255.0) Computer C: 192.168.100.4 (255.255.255.0) : : Computer X: 192.168.100.254 (255.255.255.0)
