Depending on your BlackBerry® device model, the WLAN feature might not be supported.
About connecting to a WLAN
With WLAN technology, your BlackBerry® device can access the Internet by connecting to a wireless router or wireless access
point at your home, work, or in a hotspot area. Your device uses the WLAN instead of the mobile network to visit web pages,
send and receive email messages, and so on. When you connect to the Internet with a WLAN, you might avoid data charges
that are associated with using your mobile network, and, in many cases, the connection speed is faster.
