Q: Why can't I see a wireless LAN (WLAN) access point even though I
know I'm within its range?
A: The WLAN access point may use a hidden service set identifier (SSID). You
can only access networks that use a hidden SSID if you know the correct SSID
and have created a WLAN access point for the network on your Nokia device
Q: How do I turn the wireless LAN (WLAN) off on my Nokia device?
A: The WLAN on your Nokia device turns off when you are not connected or
trying to connect to another access point, or not scanning for available
networks. To further reduce battery consumption, you can specify that your
Nokia device does not scan, or scans less often, for available networks in the
background. The WLAN turns off in between background scans.
To change the background scan settings, do the following:
1 Select Menu
Options > Settings.
2 To increase the background scan time interval, adjust the time in
for networks. To stop background scans, select
Show WLAN availability
3 To save your changes, select Back.
When Show WLAN availability
icon is not displayed in the home screen. However, you can still manually
scan for available WLAN networks, and connect to WLAN networks as
usual.
