Wireless LAN uses radio waves instead of a LAN cable, enabling information exchange between a PC, etc., and a wireless access point. This mechanism has the benefit of being able to use a LAN connection freely within the service range. On the other hand, radio waves reach all locations within the service range by traveling through obstructions (walls, etc.), and this can cause the following problems if security settings are not configured:
@ Theft of information being communicated A malicious third party may purposely intercept radio waves and steal the information being transmitted, such as IDs, passwords, credit card numbers and other personal information, e-mail text, etc.
@lllegal hacking A malicious third party may access your private or company network without authorization and retrieve personal information or confidential information (information leakage), pretend to be someone else and pass on or release wrong or illicit information (spoofing), rewrite intercepted information and send modified information (falsification), release computer viruses, etc., to damage data and systems (damage), etc. Essentially, wireless LAN cards and wireless access points have built-in security mechanisms intended to cope with these problems. You can minimize the chance of these problems occurring by using each wireless LAN product with proper security settings. However, ecurity settings may not be enabled right after the product's purchase, and the very nature of wireless LAN may cause security settings to be penetrated through special methods. Use your wireless product with a full understanding of its security as explained above. Should you encounter any difficulty regarding security settings, etc., please contact our Support Center. Planex Communications assumes no responsibility for any loss arising from or in connection with any security incident caused by neglected security measures or any event that cannot be prevented because of the specification of your wireless LAN. Planex Communications recommends that you fully understand the potential problems that may occur if security settings are not property configured.
