Wireless LAN
Your device can detect and connect to wireless local
area networks (WLAN). Using a WLAN, you can connect
your device to the internet and compatible devices that
have WLAN support.
About WLAN
To use a wireless LAN (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
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.
Your device supports the following WLAN features:
● IEEE 802.11b/g standard
● Operation at 2.4 GHz
● Wired equivalent privacy (WEP) with keys up to 128
bits, Wi-Fi protected access (WPA), and 802.1x
authentication methods. These functions can be
used only if they are supported by the network.
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 interne
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.
When the device is in the offline profile, you can still
use WLAN (if available). Remember to comply with any
applicable safety requirements when establishing and
using a WLAN connection.
Tip: To check the unique media access control
(MAC) address that identifies your device, open
the dialler and enter *#62209526#
