Introduction4Data and fax communicationThe Nokia D311 PC card provides the functionality of a wireless modem. In order to connect to a remote computer, send and receive files, e-mail, and faxes, as well as access the Internet, please take the following into account:•You will need the appropriate data and fax communications software on your computer. The Nokia D311 PC card is compatible with a variety of commercially available Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows Me, Windows 2000, and Windows XP compatible data and fax communications applications, such as Dial-Up Networking and HyperTerminal. •The data and fax applications that reside on your computer must be correctly configured for use with the Nokia D311 PC card. Follow the instructions given in the documentation of these applications and remember to select the Nokia D311 PC card as the modem for each application.•The data transfer and fax functions depend on the applications you have chosen, and not only on the computer or the Nokia D311 PC card. For information on how to use an application, please refer to that application’s documentation.•You need to subscribe to the corresponding data and fax services from your wireless provider. Contact your wireless provider for information about the availability and details of the services in your home network. Internet access requires that you have subscribed to the data service and obtained an Internet access point from your wireless provider.The Nokia D311 PC card can also be controlled with AT commands.About data transmissionThe Nokia D311 PC card employs data transmission capabilities of WLAN and GSM networks in order to send and receive data, browse the Internet, send short messages and e-mail, and to establish connections with other computers.Data connections may be made from most locations where your PC card operates. However, it is recommended that you move the PC card to a location where the strongest possible network signal can be obtained. When the signal is strong, data transmission is more efficient. Factors that may impair wireless connections:Interference – Electronic appliances and other equipment can cause radio interference. Also in areas where PC cards are prevalent, other PC cards can impair your wireless connection.
Introduction5Roaming – As the PC card user moves from one WLAN access point coverage area or GSM network cell to another, the signal strength may drop. As a consequence, the network may hand the user over to a coverage area and frequency where the signal is stronger. Due to varying network traffic loads, roaming may also occur when the user is stationary. Such roaming may cause slight delays in transmission. Electrostatic discharge – A discharge of static electricity from a finger or a conductor may cause erroneous functions in electrical devices. The discharge may result in unstable software operation. Network connections may become unreliable, data may become corrupted, and transmission halted. In those cases, end the existing connection (if any), stop the PC card, and remove it from the PC card slot. Then re-insert the PC card into the PC card slot and try connecting again.Dead spots and dropouts – Dead spots are areas where radio signals cannot be received. Dropouts occur when the PC card user passes through an area where the radio signal is blocked or reduced by geographical or structural obstructions, such as concrete walls.Signal impairment – Distance and obstacles can cause signals to become out-of-phase. They can also cause reflected signals. Both situations result in a loss of signal strength.Low signal strength – Due to either distance or obstacles, the radio signal strength from a WLAN access point or GSM cell site may not be strong or stable enough to provide a reliable connection for communication. Therefore, to ensure the best possible communication, remember to consider the following points:•Data connection works best when the PC card is in a stationary position. Attempting wireless data communication while in a moving vehicle is not recommended. Fax transmission is more easily impaired than data or text message transmission.•Do not place the PC card on a metal surface.General Packet Radio Service (GPRS)Important: GPRS may not be available in all wireless networks. The establishment and continuation of a GPRS and Internet connection depends on network availability, wireless provider support, and signal strength.GPRS is a packet data technology where information is sent in short bursts of data over the mobile network. The benefit of sending data in packets is that the network is occupied only when sending or receiving data. GPRS as such is a data bearer that enables wireless access to data networks like the Internet. The applications that use GPRS are SMS messaging and GPRS dial-up (for example, the Internet and e-mail).
Introduction6Before you can use GPRS technology: •You need to subscribe to GPRS service.For availability and subscription to GPRS service, contact your wireless provider.•You need to save the GPRS settings for the applications used over GPRS.See “Messages” on page 31 for configuring text message settings.See also “Create new profiles” on page 21 and “Data and fax communication” on page 4.Please refer to the Data Security document found on the Nokia D311 PC card CD-ROM for information on security issues.Pricing for GPRS and applicationsConfirm the cost of operating your PC card with your wireless provider. You may be charged for the GPRS connection and any data that is sent and received over the connection.Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN)The PC card described in this document is approved for use in a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN).The Nokia D311 PC card supports the following WLAN features:•IEEE 802.11b standard•Data rates of 1, 2, 5.5, and 11 Mbit/s•Operation at a frequency of 2.412 - 2.462 GHz using Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) radio technology•Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data encryption with keys up to 152 bits.The Nokia D311 PC card enables you to connect compatible laptop computers, hand-held devices, desktop PCs, and other devices with a type II or III PC card slot to a local area network through a WLAN access point. Instead of cables, radio waves are used to transmit and receive data over the air.If you move the computer to another location within the WLAN and out of range of a WLAN access point, the roaming functionality can automatically connect your computer to another access point that belongs to the same network. As long as you remain within range of access points that belong to the same network, your computer can stay connected to the network.
Introduction7The Nokia D311 PC card enables different types of communication in a WLAN. There are two operating modes to choose from: infrastructure and ad hoc.InfrastructureThe infrastructure operating mode allows two kinds of communication:•Wireless stations communicate with each other through a WLAN access point.•Wireless stations communicate with a wired LAN station through a WLAN access point. The advantage of the infrastructure operating mode is that you can have more control over network connections because they pass through an access point. A wireless station can access the services that are available in a regular wired LAN: company database, e-mail, the Internet, and other network resources, for example.Ad hocIn the ad hoc operating mode, wireless stations send and receive data directly with each other; no access point is required. Simply insert the PC cards into the stations, make the necessary configurations, and start communicating. Ad hoc networking is easy to set up, but communication is limited to stations that are within range. As long as the stations are within range, you can, for example, share and exchange files.Figure 1 - Infrastructure networkWLAN access point
Introduction8See “Set up and join ad hoc networks” on page 17 for how to set up an ad hoc network.SIM servicesSIM services refers to a service which enables you to access the Internet via your wireless service provider’s own public network. Your wireless provider may, for example, offer you the possibility to check data from your company intranet, send and receive e-mail, and save documents. SIM services are usually available in public places such as hotels, airports, railway stations, business centers, and corporate buildings.Note: Before you can take advantage of the SIM services, you must subscribe to these services from your wireless provider and obtain instructions for use.A SIM card is used as a means for user identification: the data stored on the SIM card is read, and if valid, you are allowed to connect to the Internet and intranets. The SIM card is provided by the wireless provider.Accounting data, such as used access time and/or transferred data, is passed from the network on to the wireless provider for billing purposes. Accounting begins when the wireless station is authenticated and ends when the wireless station logs off.Note: The actual invoice for services from your wireless provider may vary, depending upon network features, rounding-off for billing, taxes and so forth.Security in WLANSecurity issues should always be carefully considered to ensure the secure transmission of data in both wired and wireless LANs. In current wireless systems, for example, WLAN access points need to authenticate wireless stations to Figure 2 - Ad hoc network
Introduction9prevent unauthorized access to the network. Authentication is a service that confirms the identity of an entity, such as a user or a computer, or confirms the origin of a transmitted message.The Nokia D311 PC card supports the Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) protocol, which offers basic protection in WLAN. The WEP protocol utilizes the RC4 algorithm with an up to 152-bit secret key, which encrypts data before it is transmitted over radio waves. When the wireless stations in a WLAN wish to communicate using WEP, they must have the same WEP key in possession. The Nokia D311 PC card is also compatible with leading Virtual Private Network (VPN) clients over GPRS and WLAN. VPN is recommended for more secure network access. The Nokia D311 PC card is equipped with an integrated smart card reader. SIM cards and smart card readers provide a tool for managing secure user authentication in a WLAN. SIM cards also provide an easy way for users to carry an authentication device with them. On a SIM card users can store important information, such as WEP keys and network profiles.The smart card reader reads the data stored on the computer chip and sends it to the network for processing. The SIM card is protected by a PIN code; to access the contents of the SIM card, you need to enter the correct PIN code.Warning: Keep all SIM cards out of reach of small children. Please refer to the Data Security document found on the product CD-ROM for more information on security issues.AntennaTip: TIPS ON EFFICIENT OPERATION: Your PC card has a built-in antenna. As with any other radio transmitting device, do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the PC card is on. Contact with the antenna affects connection quality and may cause the PC card to operate at a higher power level than otherwise needed. Not touching the antenna area during a connection optimizes the antenna performance.The Nokia D311 PC card antenna is inside an extension box. In this document antenna refers to the extension box and the antennas inside it.Do not cover the antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the PC card and may violate regulations governing radio devices.See page 54 for more information on antennas and on using a laptop computer on your lap.

Nokia D311 PC card features35Manage personal WEP keysPersonal Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) keys are used for authenticating the user in a WLAN. Personal keys are usually created by the system administrator, who can store them on SIM cards and then distribute them to the users. Personal keys can also be saved to a file. Since personal keys are not network specific, they cannot be saved together with profiles. They can, however, be saved to a file and used independently from profiles.Personal WEP keys can be used only with the infrastructure operating mode, provided that the WLAN access point supports the keys. Ad hoc networks use shared WEP keys only.See “Create and edit personal WEP keys” on page 40 for more information.Administrator pageThe Administrator page is meant for system administrators and is not installed as part of the normal installation procedure. On the Administrator page, the system administrator can view detailed information on the network connections and save important data on a SIM card. The administrator can create installation disks that include relevant network profiles and settings, and that then can be distributed to end users within a corporation, for example.Monitor information on WLANOn the WLAN tab you can view general information on various elements of a WLAN. Depending on the type of access point in use, the details displayed can include network name, data rate, channel, signal strength, and IP address.Select from the following items:Access points – In the infrastructure operating mode, shows which WLAN access points are currently in range and available.Networks – Shows all the wireless local area networks that can be accessed with the PC card.Wireless stations – In the ad hoc operating mode, the names of the other computers connected to the ad hoc network are displayed. Note that only the names of those computers that are using the Nokia D311 PC card are shown.To update the information on display, click Refresh.
Nokia D311 PC card features36View WLAN statisticsOn the Statistics tab you can view detailed information on the connection between the Nokia D311 PC card and the WLAN access point to which you are linked. Both graphical and numeric statistics are given for the following properties: connection quality, received signal strength (RSSI), noise floor, signal to noise ratio (SNR), Tx retry rate, and data flow.If you want to save the information to a text file, click Start Logging.Create installation disksThe system administrator can create installation disks that contain all the software and necessary settings needed for accessing networks. The custom installation package fits on a compact disk but can also be saved on a hard disk.The installation disk can be used for distributing profiles. All the desired settings and profiles can be copied to the installation disk, and the end user does not have to configure settings in order to be able to connect to a network. To generate an installation disk:1On the Administrator page, select the Installation Disk tab. Select from the following options:Profiles available – The list contains the names of all the profiles found in the system registry. Select the profiles that you want to include in the installation package.Allow editing of selected profiles – The administrator can deny the editing of those profiles that are distributed with the installation disk. The user can create new profiles.Include smart card driver – If you want other applications to be able to use the smart card reader of the Nokia D311 PC card, you need to install a PC/SC (Personal Computer Smart Card) compliant smart card driver. When this option is selected, the smart card reader can be used with other applications besides the Nokia D311 PC card, and with special types of smart cards. Include basic settings from Settings page – Certain settings that have been configured on the Settings page can be included in the installation package. These include all settings configured on the General tab, GSM tab (no advanced settings such as call forwarding), and WLAN tab. These settings are common for all profiles.Create one file installation package – The installation package consists of only one executable file. It contains the necessary files and drivers, and is easier to distribute through e-mail, for example, than several separate files.Include Administrator page – The entire Administrator page is included in the installation package.
Nokia D311 PC card features372To start creating an installation disk with the selected profiles and options, click Create.3Select the destination folder and click OK.Manage SIM card contentsThe system administrator can store important information such as personal WEP keys and network profiles on a SIM card. The administrator can then give users SIM cards, which contain the necessary network settings and encryption keys for quick network access. Transferring files from the computer to the SIM card and vice versa is done by using a drag-and-drop operation or by using the Copy, Move, and Delete buttons on the SIM Card tab.For the changes to take effect, click Apply. Note that the button is inactive if there is not enough free space on the SIM card. If you have made changes but wish to restore the previous state, click Restore.Distribute profilesThe system administrator can create profiles and then distribute them to end users within a corporation. There are different ways for delivering profiles:•Installation disks: the system administrator can create installation disks which contain all the software and necessary settings needed for accessing networks – including profiles. See “Create installation disks” on page 36.•Network: profiles can be saved to a folder on a network drive from which the end user can import the profile. See “Import and export profiles” on page 27.•SIM card: the system administrator can store profiles on SIM cards which can then be distributed to end users. See “Manage SIM card contents” above.•Text messages: profiles can be distributed by sending a text message that includes a profile. See “Send a profile as a text message” on page 27.WEP securityTo increase the security of communication over the wireless local area network, the Nokia D311 PC card offers the Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) security feature. WEP uses the RC4 algorithm with an up to 152-bit key. The algorithm provides for security via two methods: authentication and encryption. Authentication is the means by which one wireless station is verified to have authorization to communicate with a second station in a given coverage area.
Nokia D311 PC card features38In the infrastructure operating mode, authentication is established between a WLAN access point and each wireless station. If a wireless station receives a packet that has not been scrambled with a correct key, the packet is discarded. Encrypted messages can be opened by other PC cards only if they all use the same encryption key. In the ad hoc operating mode, authentication is established between each wireless station.The level of security is dependent on the length of the key: the more bits there are in the key, the longer it takes to decrypt the information sent and the higher the level of security. WEP keys consist of a secret key and a 24-bit Initialization Vector. For example, the 128-bit WEP key has a 104-bit secret key that the user can set, and a 24-bit Initialization Vector that cannot be controlled by the user. Many manufacturers refer to this 128-bit key as a 128-bit key, whereas some refer to it as a 104-bit key (104+24). Both keys offer the same level of encryption and are therefore interchangeable.Tip: Regardless of how the WEP keys have been named, all keys are compatible as long as their length is the same. For example, keys that are 40 bits long, always consist of 5 alphanumeric characters or 10 hexadecimal characters.The Nokia D311 PC card supports three key lengths: 40 (40+24), 128 (104+24), and 152 (128+24) bits. The 40-bit key is Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity) compatible.There are two types of WEP keys: shared keys and personal keys.Shared WEP keysShared WEP keys are shared by all wireless stations using the network or subnetwork; only stations that have the correct key can receive and decrypt data. The same key is loaded into the WLAN access point. Shared keys are usually created by system administrators, who distribute them to users.Shared keys are network-specific, and each network can have a maximum of four different shared keys. A WLAN access point only transmits data using the active key, but can receive data from wireless stations using any of the four shared WEP keys.Tip: If you have a profile that includes more than one network, it is recommended that you use the same shared WEP keys with all these networks.Because the shared WEP keys are network-specific and user-independent, they can be saved in a file together with profiles. Users can import from a file or a SIM card profiles that include shared keys and that have been created by their system administrator.Shared keys can be used as the only form of WEP security or used together with a personal key.
Nokia D311 PC card features39Personal WEP keysEach wireless station can have an individual, personal WEP key. Personal keys are used for providing additional security for wireless connections. They are usually created by system administrators, who distribute them to users. A WLAN access point uses a different key for each wireless station. There are two types of personal WEP keys, and the difference between the keys is the type of information that is used for identifying the user:•Station-specific – Uses the MAC address of the PC card to identify the user.•User-specific – Uses an identifier that the users can create themselves.Unlike shared WEP keys, personal WEP keys are not network specific, and therefore cannot be saved together with profiles. They can, however, be saved to a file and used independently from profiles.Personal WEP keys can be used only with the infrastructure operating mode. Ad hoc networks use shared WEP keys only.Note: Not all WLAN access points support personal WEP keys. Ask your system administrator for more information.Create and edit shared WEP keysShared WEP keys are usually created by a system administrator. In the infrastructure operating mode, make sure that the same shared WEP key is configured to the WLAN access point; if the access point and PC card are using incompatible keys, they cannot communicate. Contact your system administrator for details.1On the Profiles page, select the Modify tab. Select from the list the profile with which you want to use a shared WEP key. Click Edit. 2The Edit Profile dialog box opens. Select WLAN and General tab.3Select the Use WEP security check box and click WEP Keys.4Select from the four keys which one you want to modify. Click Edit.5Select the appropriate key length. Supported key lengths are 40, 128, and 152 bits. Remember that the more bits there are in the key, the higher the level of security.Type in the WEP key data in hexadecimal format. If you want to enter the WEP key in text form, type the text in the In text form box. You can copy and paste the text by using the CTRL+ C and CTRL+V key combinations respectively.6Click OK to save the shared WEP key.To select which shared WEP key to use, select the key and click Activate. To empty the contents of the key, click Clear.

These include below deck on boats; chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liquified petroleum gas (such as propane or butane); areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders; and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.VehiclesFor vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember that an air bag inflates with great force. Do not place objects in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. Serious injury could result if the PC card is improperly placed and the air bag inflates.
Important safety information54Using your PC card while in the air is prohibited. Remove your PC card from the PC card slot before boarding an aircraft. The use of PC cards in an aircraft may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft, disrupt the wireless telephone network and may be illegal.Failure to observe these instructions may lead to suspension or denial of telephone services to the offender, or legal action or both.AntennaThe Nokia D311 PC card has a built-in antenna. As with any other radio-transmitting device, avoid touching the antenna while the PC card is on. Contact with the antenna affects connection quality and may cause the PC card to operate at a higher power level than necessary.FCC Notice: This PC card has been tested and meets FCC RF exposure guidelines when used in a position that keeps the antenna at least 3/4 inch (1.9cm) from your body when the PC card is switched on. When used with a laptop computer on your lap, the snap-on spacer can be used to provide the required 3/4 inch (1.9cm) distance.Slide the snap-on spacer on the PC card in the direction of arrow 1. Then insert the PC card into the PC card slot of the computer.Figure 7 - Installing the snap-on spacer1snap-on spacer
