About integrated wireless devices

Wireless technology transfers data across radio waves instead of wires. Your computer may be

equipped with one or more of the following wireless devices:

●

Wireless local area network (WLAN) device—Connects the computer to wireless local area

networks (commonly referred to as Wi-Fi networks, wireless LANs, or WLANs) in corporate offices,

your home, and public places such as airports, restaurants, coffee shops, hotels, and universities.

In a WLAN, each mobile wireless device communicates with a wireless router or a wireless access

point.

●

HP Broadband Wireless Module—A wireless wide area network (WWAN) device that provides

access to information wherever mobile network operator service is available. In a WWAN, each

mobile device communicates to a mobile network operator's base station. Mobile network operators

install networks of base stations (similar to cell phone towers) throughout large geographic areas,

effectively providing coverage across entire states, regions, or even countries.

●

Bluetooth® device—Creates a personal area network (PAN) to connect to other Bluetooth-enabled

devices such as computers, phones, printers, headsets, speakers, and cameras. In a PAN, each

device communicates directly with other devices, and devices must be relatively close together—

typically within 33 feet of each other.
