Airplane mode, which is a standard function of Windows 11, is a function that makes it impossible to send and receive all wireless communications such as Wi-Fi, mobile network, and Bluetooth. There are scenes where airplane mode is set in places where external communication is prohibited. When airplane mode is enabled, it is possible to block external communication via Wi-Fi and make it impossible to connect to the Internet. An example of general communication is as follows.
- Web page search

- Youtube, Instagram, Facebook, etc.
- Bluetooth communication
- GPS
