Connected home

The Connected home concept makes your phone a part of everyday living in terms of music
and media handling in your home environment. It connects Hi-Fi, TV, movies, gaming, etc.,
on your home network.

Wi-Fi™

Using a Wi-Fi™ connection, you can access the Internet wirelessly with your phone. You
can browse the Internet using personal (home) networks and hotspots (public access
zones).
Personal networks are usually protected by a passphrase or key. Hotspots are usually not
protected, but often require you to log on to an operator's service before you get Internet
access.
