Using WLAN (IEEE 80.11b/g)

Introduction

WLAN (IEEE 802.11b/g), refers to certain types of wireless local area network (WLAN) that
use specifications in the 802.11 family. Created by the Wi-Fi Alliance, a nonprofit international
association to certify interoperability of wireless local area network products. Any device
tested and approved by the Wi-Fi Alliance are certified as interoperable with each other even
if they are from different manufacturers.

Activating WLAN in your device

To activate WLAN in your device:
1. Tap Start > Settings > Connections tab then tap the Wi-Fi Manager icon.
2. From the Wi-Fi Manager screen, tap Menu then Turn Wi-Fi On.
You can also turn Wi-Fi on or off from the Today screen or using the Wireless Manager:
1. Tap the Wi-Fi icon
2. From the pop-up callout, tap Turn on Wi-Fi.
Refer to page 54 to turn WLAN on or off using the Wireless Manager.
NOTE:
• When WLAN is used simultaneously with the GPRS, the latter will get signal priority. We recommend not to use
WLAN and GPRS at the same time.
• We recommend not to use WLAN and the Bluetooth function at the same time. It may cause disturbance in data
transmission since both use the same wireless channel.
• The WLAN and USB connections cannot be used at the same time.
• When the battery power is less than 20% the device prompts a warning message whether to continue using WiFi or
not. Tap "Yes" to continue using or "No" to disconnect. We recommend that you plug the power adapter
immediately to avoid losing data.
