About WLAN
To use a wireless local area network (WLAN) connection, it
must be available in the location, and your device must be
connected to the WLAN. Some WLANs are protected, and you
need an access key from the service provider to connect to
them.
Note: In France, you are only allowed to use WLAN
indoors.
Features that use WLAN, or that are allowed to run in the
background while using other features, increase the demand
on battery power and reduce the battery life.
Important: Always enable one of the available encryption
methods to increase the security of your wireless LAN
connection. Using encryption reduces the risk of
unauthorised access to your data.
WLAN connections
To use a wireless LAN (WLAN) connection, you must create an
internet access point (IAP) for WLAN. Use the access point for
applications that need to connect to the internet.
A WLAN connection is established when you create a data
connection using a WLAN internet access point. The active
WLAN connection ends when you end the data connection.
You can use WLAN during a voice call or when packet data is
active. You can only be connected to one WLAN access point
device at a time, but several applications can use the same
internet access point.
