WLAN networks

WLAN is a wireless networking technology that can provide internet access at
distance of up to 100 meters. To use WLAN on your phone, you access a
wireless access point, or "hotspot". Some hotspots are open and you can simply
connect to them. Others are hidden or implement other security features, so you
must configure your phone so it can connect to them.
Tip: Turn off WLAN when you are not using it, to extend the life of your battery.
