Checking for a Wireless LAN
signal
Before you start a Wi-Fi connection, you must verify
that your Toshiba phone has access to a Wireless
LAN channel signal. You can check the current
wireless connection status from the following three
screens on your phone.
• Today screen - If your Toshiba phone detects a
Wireless LAN network connection, the Wireless
LAN connection icon is displayed at the top of
the Today screen.
• Wireless Manager screen - The current
connection status and signal quality for each
specific wireless channel is displayed on the
Wireless Manager screen with the current
configuration.
• Wi-Fi screen - Displays the wireless networks
currently available and allows you to add new
ones if available.
NOTE: Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) is the default
wireless channel setting for your Toshiba
phone. However, GPRS starts by default if
your phone does not detect a Wi-Fi signal.
