Connectivity

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.
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.
Your device supports the following WLAN features:
IEEE 802.11b/g standard
●
Cyan Cyan Cyan Cyan
Operation at 2.4 GHz
●
Wired equivalent privacy (WEP) with keys up to
●
128 bits, Wi-Fi protected access (WPA), and
802.1x authentication methods. These functions
can be used only if they are supported by the
network.
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.
