Connect Box LAN Choices
You can connect up to 253 client computers to the Connect Box using one or any
combination of the following network connections:
Wi-Fi wireless LAN (WLAN)
Ethernet local area network (LAN)
Wireless LAN
Wireless communication occurs over radio waves rather than a wire. Like a cordless
telephone, a WLAN uses radio signals instead of wires to exchange data. A wireless
network eliminates the need for expensive and intrusive wiring to connect computers
throughout the home or office. Mobile users can remain connected to the network
even when carrying their laptop to different locations in the home or office.
Each computer or other device on a WLAN must be Wi-Fi enabled with either a
built-in or external wireless adapter.
Laptops — Use a built-in wireless notebook adapter, a wireless PCMCIA slot adapter,
or a wireless USB adapter.
Desktops — Use a wireless PCI adapter, wireless USB adapter, or compatible product in
the PCI slot or USB port, respectively.
Sample Wireless Network Connections (Connect Box model shown)
Your maximum wireless operation distance depends on the type of materials through
which the signal must pass and the location of your Connect Box and clients (stations).
Wireless performance cannot be guaranteed for all supported distances in all environ-
ments.
Note:
To get better wireless coverage, please put your Connect Box wireless gate-
way vertically.
