Related Topic Notes on Using the Wi-Fi Function Wi-Fi checker Notes on Using the Wi-Fi Function Use of Wi-Fi products may be restricted by local regulations in some countries or regions. Wi-Fi devices work on the 2.4 GHz band, which is used by a variety of devices. Wi-Fi devices use technology to minimize radio interference from other devices that use the same band. However, radio interference may still cause slower data transfer speeds, reduce communications range or cause communications failure. If both the Bluetooth function and the 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi function of your tablet device are enabled, interference may occur and cause slower data transfer speeds or other problems. To communicate via Wi-Fi while traveling, you may need to contract with a Wi-Fi connection service provider. Data transfer speed and communications range may vary depending on the following conditions:
Distance between devices Presence of obstacles between devices Device configuration Signal conditions Surrounding environment (wall material, etc.) Software in use Communications may be cut off depending on signal conditions. The data transfer rate specified in the specification is the theoretical maximum, and may not reflect actual data transfer rate. Actual data transfer speed may not be as fast as the speed displayed on your tablet device. Communications is not available between the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi frequency bands. The data transfer rate for IEEE 802.11g and IEEE 802.11n (2.4 GHz) devices may be affected by interference when used with IEEE 802.11b products. Also, products using IEEE 802.11g and IEEE 802.11n automatically lower the transfer rate to maintain compatibility with IEEE 802.11b products. When the data transfer speed is not as fast as expected, changing the wireless channel on the access point may increase the speed. Related Topic Starting Wi-Fi Communications Wi-Fi checker About the Bluetooth(R) Function You can establish wireless communications between your tablet device and other Bluetooth devices such as a computer, mobile phone, headset, Bluetooth headphone or wireless keyboard.

Bluetooth devices work on the 2.4 GHz band, which is used by a variety of devices. Bluetooth devices use technology to minimize radio interference from other devices that use the same band. However, radio interference may still cause slower data transfer speeds, reduce communications range or cause communications failure. Data transfer speed and communications range may vary depending on the following conditions:
Distance between communicating devices Presence of obstacles between devices Surrounding environment that includes presence of walls and materials of such walls Device configuration Software in use Signal conditions Communications may be cut off depending on signal conditions. Interference may occur if both the Bluetooth function and the 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi function are enabled. That will result in slower data transfer speeds or other problems. Large files may occasionally be corrupted during continuous transfer due to limitations of the Bluetooth standard and ambient electromagnetic interference. Connecting multiple Bluetooth devices to your tablet device may cause channel congestion, resulting in poor device performance. This is normal with Bluetooth technology and does not indicate a malfunction. Video and audio may not be synchronized if you play videos on your tablet device with audio output from a connected Bluetooth device. This is a frequent occurrence with Bluetooth technology and does not indicate a malfunction. All Bluetooth devices must be certified through procedures stipulated by Bluetooth SIG to ensure that they comply with the Bluetooth standard. Even if the Bluetooth standard is complied with, individual device performance, specifications, and operation procedures can vary. Output sound may not be switched between a Bluetooth audio device and the built-in speaker when you connect or disconnect the device while an app such as game is running. If that occurs, exit the app and restart the device. Or switch the sound before starting the app. Sound of apps such as games may be delayed when heard from Bluetooth audio devices connected to your tablet device. If that occurs, output sound from the built-in speaker or connect an audio device to the headphone jack of your tablet device to hear the sound. If you turn off a Bluetooth audio device connected to your tablet device while an app such as a game is running, the app may no-longer work properly. If that occurs, exit the app and restart your tablet device. To exchange files with Bluetooth devices, you need to download applications other than those that are pre-
installed. Related Topic About the Bluetooth(R) Function Communicating with Another Bluetooth(R) Device Stopping Bluetooth(R) Communications About Bluetooth(R) Security About Bluetooth(R) Security Bluetooth wireless technology has an authentication function that allows you to determine with whom you choose to communicate. With the authentication function, you can prevent any anonymous Bluetooth devices from accessing your tablet device. The first time two Bluetooth devices communicate, a common passkey (a password required for authentication) should be determined for both devices to be registered. Once a device is registered, there is no need to re-enter the passkey. Your tablet device will be detected by other Bluetooth devices, only when it is set to allow detection by other Bluetooth devices. You can set the time to accept the detection, or whether or not to allow reception after both devices are connected.
