Before Us ing the Optional Wireless LAN
This manual describes the procedures required to properly set up and configure the optional
integrated Wireless LAN Mini-PCI device (referred to as "WLAN device" in the r est of the
manual). Before using the WLAN d evice, read this manual carefully to ensure its 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 the following device:
• Intel® Dual Band Wireless-N 7265 2x2 ac with intgegrated Bluetooth 4.0
Characteristics of the WLAN Device
• The WLAN devices are PCI Express Mini cards attached to the main board of the mobile computer.
• The WLAN devices operate in license-free RF bands, eliminating the need to procure
an FCC operating license. The WLAN operates in the 2.4GHz Industrial, Scientific,
and Medical (ISM) RF band and the lower, middle, and upper bands of the 5GHz
Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure (U NII) bands.
• The WLAN devices are capable of five operating modes, IEEE802.11a , IEEE802.11ac,
IEEE802.11b, IEEE802.11g, and IEEE802 .11n.
• The WLAN device is Wi-Fi certified and operates (as ap plicable) at a the maximum
data rate of 450 Mbps in IEEE802.11n mode (300 Mbps in this con fig uration); 54 Mbps
in IEEE802.11g mode; and 11 Mbps in IEEE802.11b mode.
• The WLAN devices support the following encryption methods - WEP,
TKIP, CKIP, and AES encryption.
• The Wireless LAN devices are compliant with the following standards: WPA,
WPA2, CCX1.0, CCX2.0, CCX3.0, and CCX4.0.
Wireless
LAN Modes Using this Device
Ad Hoc Mod e
"Ad Hoc Mode" re fers to a wireless network architecture where wireless network connectivity
between multiple computers is established without a central wireless net work device, typically
known as Access Point(s). Connectivity is accomplished using only client devices in a pe er-to-peer
fashion. That is why Ad Hoc netwo rks are also kn own as peer-to-pee r networks. Ad Hoc
networks are an easy and inexpensive method for establishing network connectivity betwe en
multiple computers. Ad Hoc m ode requires that the SSID, network authentication, and e ncryption
key settings are identically configured on all computers in the Ad H oc network.
