3 Connecting to a network

Your computer can travel with you wherever you go. But even at home, you can explore the globe and access

information from millions of websites using your computer and a wired or wireless network connection. This

chapter will help you get connected to that world.

Connecting to a wireless network

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, the

mobile wireless device in your computer communicates with a wireless router or a wireless access

point.

●

HP Mobile Broadband Module (select models only)—A wireless wide area network (WWAN) device that

gives you wireless connectivity over a much larger area. Mobile network operators install 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 10 meters (approximately 33 feet) of each other.

For more information about wireless technology, see the information and website links provided in HP

Support Assistant. To access HP Support Assistant, from the Start screen, select the HP Support Assistant

app.

Using the wireless controls

You can control the wireless devices in your computer using these features:

●

Wireless button, wireless switch, or wireless key (referred to in this chapter as the wireless button)

●

Operating system controls

Using the wireless button

The computer has a wireless button, one or more wireless devices, and one or two wireless lights, depending

on the model. All of the wireless devices on your computer are enabled at the factory, so the wireless light is

on (white) when you turn on the computer.

The wireless light indicates the overall power state of your wireless devices, not the status of individual

devices. If the wireless light is white, at least one wireless device is on. If the wireless light is off, all wireless

devices are off.

NOTE: On some models, the wireless light is amber when all wireless devices are off.

Because the wireless devices are enabled at the factory, you can use the wireless button to turn on or turn off

the wireless devices simultaneously.
