11 Introduction1Main FeaturesThis section describes the main product features. • Supports NTT Docomo ”Xi”. (When receiving: Max. 37.5 Mbps; When sending: Max. 12.5 Mbps) * The communication speeds are the maximum values in sending and receiving standards. However, these do not indicate actual communication speeds. Data transmission is provided over a best-effort network. For that reason, actual communication speeds may vary according to the communication environ-ment and the traffic load on the network. * When outside of the Xi area, this can also be used in a FOMA high-speed area (when receiving: Max. 14 Mbps; when sending: Max. 5.7 Mbps).• The Internet connection automatically switches in public wireless LAN areas, such as Mzone, from the Xi line or FOMA line to the public wireless LAN.• The included cradle provides a wired port connection, and recharges the product. • Connects up to 12 wireless LAN devices, such as personal computers and game consoles.• Connects to wireless LAN devices with one touch using AOSS or WPS. Operating EnvironmentThis section describes the product operating environment. Supported DevicesiPad, iPod touch, game console (Nintendo 3DS™, Nintendo DS®, PSP® ”PlayStation Portable”), and devices that support wireless LAN.
