Wi-Fi
With wireless access, you do not need to use cables to connect your HP iPAQ to the Internet. Instead,
access points transmit data to and from your wireless device. Your HP iPAQ can connect to an 802.11b/g
WLAN or connect directly to other WLAN-enabled devices. With Wi-Fi you can:
●
Access the Internet
●
Send and receive e-mail
●
Access corporate network information
●
Use Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) for secure remote access
●
Use hotspots for wireless connectivity
NOTE: Use of dial-up and wireless Internet, e-mail, corporate networks, and other wireless
communications, such as Bluetooth devices, may require separately purchased additional hardware
and other compatible equipment, in addition to a standard Wi-Fi infrastructure and a separately
purchased service contract. Check with your service provider for availability and coverage in your area.
