Security Precautions
Wireless LAN uses radio waves instead of LAN cables to send and receive data between a computer and a wireless access point,
making it possible to freely establish a LAN connection within a range of the radio waves. However, radio waves can be received
through obstacles, such as walls, when within the range. Therefore, if security settings are not made, the following problems may occur.
Unauthorized viewing of data An unauthorized third party can intercept the radio waves and view e-mail messages and personal
information, such as user ID and password or your credit card information. Unauthorized access An unauthorized third party can access
a personal or corporate network and cause the following damage:
- Intercepting personal information and confidential information (information leak)
- Using a false identity to communicate and disclose information illegally (identity theft)
- Changing and transmitting intercepted data (tampering)
- Damaging data and systems by spreading a computer virus (destruction)
The wireless LAN card and wireless access point have security features to counter these problems. Using the security settings of the
wireless LAN equipment can help prevent these problems from occurring. The security settings of the wireless LAN equipment are not
configured at the time of purchase.
To reduce security problems, configure all security settings of the wireless LAN equipment according to the manual before using the
wireless LAN card and wireless access point. Please be aware that the security settings do not provide complete security protection due
to wireless LAN specifications. If you are unable to configure the security settings yourself, please contact your local authorized dealer.
The customer is responsible for configuring the security settings and understanding the risks inherent in using the product without the
security settings configured.
