9.2 WiFi Wireless Networking

CH09.indd 197
This phone supports IEEE 802.11b/g wireless networking, which you can
use to connect to a public wireless network, private wireless network ac-
cess point, or other supported WiFi compliant computer or device. WiFi
is the default network connection setting. If the phone has not been acti-
vated with WiFi, or has not successfully connected to a wireless access
point, then GPRS will be used as the default connection method.
You can use the Comm Manager to activate/deactivate the phone and
wireless functions. After activating WiFi wireless networking, the phone
will automatically detect any nearby WiFi wireless network signal sourc-
es. When the phone successfully detects a WiFi wireless network signal,
you must select the wireless network and connection settings to use. If
the wireless network uses security features, then the key must be ob-
tained from the wireless network administrator.
If your WiFi wireless network does not broadcast its SSID, then you must
manually enter the new wireless network settings on the phone. You can
also modify the currently available WiFi wireless network settings.
If the connected wireless network access point or Ad-hoc device does
not support DHCP, then the phone will not be able to obtain a valid IP ad-
dress and connect to the Internet.Please contact your wireless network
administrator for an IP address and manually enter it. If you wish to use
customized DNS servers, you can also manually enter the IP address for
the DNS server. To manually configuring the IP address, please refer to
Chapter 11.
When connected, you can view the WiFi connectivity information at the
Today screen. It is also possible to view the WiFi connectivity information
or configure WiFi power saving mode using the Comm Manager.
Using WiFi wireless networking will consume extra battery power. If you
do not need WiFi wireless networking, please turn it off to improve stand-
by time.
(Note 1) Public wireless networks include public transportation stations, air-
ports, and restaurants that provide wireless networks for public use. Some
public wireless networks may require a fee.
