Connections Connections Wireless LAN Your device supports wireless local area network (wireless LAN). With wireless LAN, you can connect your device to the internet and compatible devices that have wireless LAN. For information about using your device with other compatible UPnP devices through wireless LAN, see 'Home network with Gallery', p. 51 and 'Home network with music player', p. 21. To use wireless LAN, a wireless LAN must be available in the location and your device must be connected to the wireless LAN. Some places, like France, have restrictions on the use of wireless LAN. Check with your local authorities for more information. Features using wireless LAN, or allowing such features 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 wireless LAN features: • IEEE 802.11b/g standard • Operation at a frequency of 2.4 GHz • Wired equivalent privacy (WEP) with keys up to 128 bits, Wi-Fi protected access (WPA), and 802.1x encryption methods. These functions can be used only if they are supported by the network. Wireless LAN connections To use wireless LAN, you must create an internet access point (IAP) in a wireless LAN. Use the access point for applications that need to connect to the internet. See 'Wireless LAN access points', p. 71. Important: Always enable one of the available encryption methods to increase the security of your wireless LAN connection. Using encryption reduces the risk of unauthorized access to your data. A wireless LAN connection is established when you create a data connection using a wireless LAN internet access point. The active wireless LAN connection ends when you close the last application using the connection. To end all the connections simultaneously, see 'Connection manager', p. 75. You can use wireless LAN during a voice call or when packet data is active. You can only be connected to one wireless LAN access point device at a time, but several applications can use the same internet access point. 70

Connections
Wireless LAN
Your device supports wireless local area network (wireless
LAN). With wireless LAN, you can connect your device to
the internet and compatible devices that have wireless
LAN. For information about using your device with other
compatible UPnP devices through wireless LAN, see ‘Home
network with Gallery’, p. 51 and ‘Home network with
music player’, p. 21.
To use wireless LAN, a wireless LAN must be available in
the location and your device must be connected to the
wireless LAN.
Some places, like France, have restrictions on the use of
wireless LAN. Check with your local authorities for more
information.
Features using wireless LAN, or allowing such features 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 wireless LAN features:
IEEE 802.11b/g standard
Operation at a frequency of 2.4 GHz
Wired equivalent privacy (WEP) with keys up to
128 bits, Wi-Fi protected access (WPA), and 802.1x
encryption methods. These functions can be used only
if they are supported by the network.
Wireless LAN connections
To use wireless LAN, you must create an internet access
point (IAP) in a wireless LAN. Use the access point for
applications that need to connect to the internet. See
‘Wireless LAN access points’, p. 71.
Important:
Always enable one of the available
encryption methods to increase the security of your
wireless LAN connection. Using encryption reduces the risk
of unauthorized access to your data.
A wireless LAN connection is established when you create
a data connection using a wireless LAN internet access
point. The active wireless LAN connection ends when you
close the last application using the connection. To end all
the connections simultaneously, see ‘Connection
manager’, p. 75.
You can use wireless LAN during a voice call or when
packet data is active. You can only be connected to one
wireless LAN access point device at a time, but several
applications can use the same internet access point.
