CAUTION: When using IEEE 802.11a wireless LAN, this product is
restricted to indoor use due to its operation in the 5.15- to 5.25-GHz
frequency range. The FCC requires this product to be used indoors
for frequency range 5.15- to 5.25-GHz to reduce the potential for
harmful interference to co-channel Mobile Satellite systems. High power
radar is allocated as the primary user of the 5.25- to 5.35-GHz and
5.65- to 5.85-GHz bands. These radar stations can cause interference
