This is because you need to communicate with digital book stores on the internet to purchase digital books. You need to do the following to connect to the internet via a wire-
less LAN from your home. To communicate via wireless LAN Check if the broad band router you are using has a built-in wireless LAN access point function. If the wireless LAN access point function is built-in In this document, this type of device is called a wireless LAN router. Wireless LAN transmissions are done between the prod-
uct and the wireless LAN router. If the wireless LAN access point function is not built-in You need a separate device called a wireless LAN access point. Wireless LAN transmissions are done between the product and the wireless LAN access point. Contact your internet service provider for details about broad band routers. You can purchase your own or rent a wireless LAN router or wire-
less LAN access point from an internet service provider. 11 TinkerBell_EN_SetupGuide.indd 11 12/12/26 13:34 Contact information

Wireless LAN function specifications Radio frequency range Modulation method IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g, IEEE 802.11n IEEE 802.11g IEEE 802.11b IEEE 802.11n 2.4 GHz (2400 - 2483 MHz) Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing OFDM-BPSK, OFDM-QPSK, OFDM-16QAM, OFDM-64QAM Direct sequence spread spectrum DSSS-CCK, DSSS-DQPSK, DSSS-DBPSK Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) Wireless IEEE 802.11 channel set 2.4 GHz range: 2400 - 2483 MHz (for IEEE 802.11b/g, IEEE 802.11n) Channel ID 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 Frequency 2412 2417 2422 2427 2432 2437 2442 2447 2452 2457 2462 2467 2472 Memo Ad-hoc communication is not possible with IEEE 802.11n. Peer-to-peer connections using ad-hoc communi-
cations can use channels 1 to 11. Infrastructure communication can use channels 1 to 13. 1 TinkerBell_EN_WirelessLAN.indd 1 13/01/09 11:08 Characteristics of wireless communications There is a correlative relationship between the communication range and transmission rate of wireless devices. The lower the transmission rate of the wireless communications, the broader the communication range. Memo The range of communications of a wireless device is affected if the antenna is placed near a metal surface or a dense solid object. The range of transmissions is affected if obstructions in the path of the wireless signal being transmitted reflect or absorb the wireless signals. About device authorization This product is a low-power data transfer system radio station according to the radio law and is equipped with an authorized radio transceiver. Therefore, a radio station license is not needed to operate this product. Name of radio:
Japan Approvals Institute for Telecommunications Equipment Authorization number:
D11-0399001 AW-NM387 The radio transceiver built into this product has been authorized as a low-power data transfer sys-
tem radio station given that it is installed and used in the product (notebook computer). Therefore, please note that using this built-in radio transceiver in a different device may infringe on the regu-

orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) radio technology and is designed to be in-
teroperable with wireless LAN products in compliance with the following standards. IEEE 802.11 Standard on Wireless LANs (revisions a/b/g/n) established by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) defined by the Wi-Fi Alliance The Wi-Fi CERTIFIED logo is the authorization mark of the Wi-Fi Alliance. 2 TinkerBell_EN_WirelessLAN.indd 2 13/01/09 11:08 Health effects The wireless device installed in this device broadcasts radio-wave electromagnetic energy the same as other radio products. However, the broadcast energy has been suppressed to levels that are much lower than mobile telephones or other radio devices. Toshiba assures that the wireless LAN component built into this device can be used safely in accordance with the guidelines of the radio frequency safety standards and recommendations. These safety standards and recommendations form an academic consensus compiled from the results of deliberations of committees of specialists in ongoing investigations and studies of a wide range of research reports. However, depending on the surrounding conditions and environment, owners of buildings or those responsible for an organization may limit the use of wireless LANs. The following are noted as ex-
amples. When using equipment that uses a wireless LAN in an airplane. When it is determined that there is a harmful effect or it is recognized that there is radio fre-
quency interference with some services or other types of equipment. If you are unsure of the policy regarding the use of wireless devices in individual organizations or locations (such as airports), confirm, with the administrator of the facility's environment or organi-
zation, that the product can be used before turning on the wireless transmission function. Information regarding regulations Be sure to follow the instructions from the manufacturer noted in the instructions provided with the product when using or installing the wireless LAN component installed in the product. The product complies with radio frequency standards and safety standards. 3 TinkerBell_EN_WirelessLAN.indd 3 13/01/09 11:08 FCC Statement This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.

ditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Any Changes or modifications not expressly approved by party responsible for compliance could void the users authority to operate the equipment. Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the in-
structions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guaran-
tee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is con-
nected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. Radiation Exposure Statement This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environ-
ment. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. 4 TinkerBell_EN_WirelessLAN.indd 4 13/01/09 11:08
