Connectivity

Your device offers several options to connect to the

internet or to another compatible device or PC.

Wireless LAN

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 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.

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 WLAN, you must create an internet access

point in a 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 access point. The

active WLAN connection is ended when you end the

data connection. You can also end the connection

manually.

You can use a WLAN during a voice call or when

packet data connection 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 a WLAN, if available. Remember to comply with

any applicable safety requirements when

establishing and using a WLAN connection.

If you move the device to another location within

the WLAN and out of range of a WLAN access point,

the roaming functionality can automatically

connect your device to another access point that

belongs to the same WLAN. As long as you remain

within range of access points that belong to the

same network, your device can stay connected to

the network.

Tip: To check the unique media access control

(MAC) address that identifies your device, for

example to configure the MAC address of your

device to a WLAN router, enter *#62209526#

in the home screen. The MAC address is

displayed.

See WLAN availability

To set your device to show wireless LAN (WLAN)

availability, select Menu > Tools > Settings and

WLAN wizard

Select Menu > Tools > Connectivity > WLAN

The WLAN wizard helps you find and connect to a

wireless LAN (WLAN). When you open the

application, your device starts to scan for available

WLANs and lists them.

Select Options and from the following:

Refresh — Update the list of available WLANs.

Filter WLAN networks — Filter out WLANs in

the list of found networks. The selected networks

Cont.web browsing — Continue web browsing

using the currently active WLAN connection.

Disconnect WLAN — Disconnect the active

connection to the WLAN.
