	NOTE: This chart does not represent all possible memory configurations. Due to the non-industry standard nature of some third-party memory modules, we strongly recommend using only HP branded memory modules to ensure compatibility. If you mix memory speeds, the system will perform at the lower memory speed.

Configuration Utility⁴

Choice of Configuration Utility:

Microsoft Windows XP Wireless Network Connection Manager
Broadcom Wireless Configuration Utility (required for Cisco Compatible Extensions support)

Check latest software/driver release for updates on supported security features.
Maximum output power may vary by country according to local regulations.
Receiver sensitivity is measured at a packet error rate of 8% for 802.11b (CKK modulation) and a packet error rate of 10% for 802.11a/g (OFDM modulation).
WLAN supplier's client utility is required for Cisco Compatible Extensions support. WLAN may also be compatible with certain third-party software supplicants.
