Home network

Your device is compatible with Universal Plug and Play
(UPnP). With a wireless LAN access point device, you can
create a home network and connect compatible UPnP
devices that support wireless LAN to the network, such
as your Nokia N93, a compatible PC, a compatible printer,
and a compatible sound system or a TV, or a sound system
or TV equipped with a compatible wireless multimedia
receiver.
After you have configured the home network, you can copy,
view, or play compatible media files and print images in
Gallery on the other connected compatible devices, for
example, view images stored on your Nokia N93 on a
compatible TV. See "Home network," p. 84 and "Image
print," p. 37.
Copyright protections may prevent some images, music
(including ringing tones), and other content from being
copied, transferred, viewed, played, or printed.
To set up home networking in your wireless LAN, first create
and configure your wireless LAN home Internet access point,
then configure the devices. On your Nokia N93, configure
the settings in the Home network
a compatible PC to the home network, on the PC, you must
application. To connect
install the Media Server software from the DVD-ROM supplied
with your Nokia N93.
After you have completed the necessary configurations in
all devices connected to the network, you can start using
Home network to share your media files. See "View media
files," p. 85.
The home network uses the security settings of the
wireless LAN connection. Use the home network feature in
a wireless LAN infrastructure network with a wireless LAN
access point device and encryption enabled.
Important: Always enable one of the available
encryption methods to increase the security of your
wireless LAN connection. Using encryption reduces
the risk of unauthorize access to your data.
Your device is connected to the home network only if you
accept a connection request from another device, or in
Gallery, select the option to view, play, print, or copy media
files on your Nokia N93 or search for other devices in the
Home network folder.
Important security information
When you configure your wireless LAN home network,
enable an encryption method, first on your access point
device, then on the other devices you intend to connect
to your home network. Refer to the documentation of the
devices. Keep any passcodes secret and in a safe place
separate from the devices.
