The optional wireless card (ET-CDWL3U or ET-CDWL2U) uses radio waves in the 2.4 GHz band. A radio station license is not required when using this wireless card, but be sure to read and fully understand the following items before use.
Do not use near other wireless equipment.
The following equipment may use radio waves in the same band as the wireless card. When the wireless card is used near these devices, radio wave interference may make communication impossible, or the communication speed may become slower.
• Microwave ovens, etc.
• Industrial, chemical and medical equipment, etc.
• In-plant radio stations for identifying moving objects such as those used in factory manufacturing lines, etc.
• Designated low-power radio stations

Notes on Using the Wireless Card

5
If at all possible, avoid the use of cellular phones, TV sets or radios near the wireless card.
Cellular phones, TV sets, radios and similar devices use different radio bands from the wireless card, so there is no effect on wireless card communication or the transmission and reception of these devices. However, radio waves from the wireless card may produce audio or video noise.
The wireless card radio waves cannot penetrate steel reinforcements, metal, concrete, etc.
Communication is possible through walls and floors made from materials such as wood and glass (except glass containing wire mesh), but not through walls and floors made from steel reinforcements, metal, concrete, etc.
