are authorized for use within the geography in which they are being 
used.  The use of this device with an Access Point that is not Wi-Fi
compliant and not authorized to be used in your geography could 
result in violation of government regulations.  Consult the network
administrator, the instruction manual, or the approval label for the
Access Point to determine the authorization of your Access Point in 
your specific country or geographic region.
