Connectivity

At Nokia, we understand how important it is that your mobile
phone or device operates reliably and that your personal
content is saved safely.
Any information from an unknown or unreliable source, via
Bluetooth connectivity, multimedia message, or cable, may
harm your PC, mobile phone, or device. You may protect your
mobile phone or device from damage and keep it secured by
following simple measures:
Always keep Bluetooth connectivity closed unless you
•
want your phone or device to be visible to others.
Always be alert when receiving information from an
•
unknown or untrustworthy source.
Do not download or install any applications that may
•
include software harmful to your phone or device.
Always download and install applications or content
•
from trusted or well-known sources, such as Nokia
Software Market, where good protection is provided
against viruses and other harmful software.
Your device offers several options to connect to the internet
or to another compatible device or PC.

Wireless LAN

Your device can detect and connect to wireless local area
networks (WLAN). Using a WLAN, you can connect your device
to the internet and compatible devices that have WLAN
support.

About WLAN
To use a wireless LAN (WLAN) connection, it must be available
in the location, and your device must be connected to the
WLAN. Some WLANs are protected, and you need an access
key from the service provider to connect to them.
There might be some restrictions for WLAN use in some
countries. Check with your local authorities for more
information.
Features that use WLAN, or that are allowed to run in the
background while using other features, increase the demand
on battery power and reduce the battery life.
Important: Always enable one of the available encryption
methods to increase the security of your wireless LAN
connection. Using encryption reduces the risk of
unauthorised access to your data.
