About the Wireless Network
Are my transmissions secure?
First, only computers with your SSID can communicate on the
AirWay 11 Mbps Network, so no one without the SSID can
enter or extract data from your network. Second, you can
encrypt all data transmissions by using WEP, as explained in
“Setting Encryption Keys for Computers” on page 30.
Can I connect to other wireless networks?
You can connect to other wireless networks only if you
configure your network to communicate with another network.
See “Changing Your Configuration” on page 27.
Can a microwave oven affect my AirWay 11 Mbps Network?
You should be able to maintain data transmission and to
browse on the Internet. Some degradation of the transmission
is expected while the microwave oven is on, but it should not
terminate your connection.
How do I connect directly to my wired network?
Turn off the shared connection on TransPort. Open the
Network Management Console, click Internet Gateway, and
deselect the shared connection check box. For more
information, see “Changing Your Internet Gateway Settings”
on page 36.
