Q: Why can’t the other device see the files stored
on my device in the home network?
A: Make sure that you have configured the home
network settings, content sharing is activated on your
device, and the other device is UPnP compatible.
Q: What can I do if my home network connection
stops working?
A: Close the wireless LAN (WLAN) connection from your
compatible PC and your device, and open it again. If
this does not help, restart your compatible PC and your
device. If the connection still does not work,
reconfigure the WLAN settings in both your compatible
PC and device.
Q: Why can't I see my compatible PC in my device
in the home network?
A: If you are using a firewall application in your
compatible PC, check that it allows home media server
to use the external connection (you can add Home
media server to the firewall application's exceptions
list). Check from the firewall settings that the firewall
application allows traffic to the following ports: 1900,
49152, 49153, and 49154. Some WLAN access point
devices have a built-in firewall. In such cases, check
that the firewall in the access point device does not
block traffic to the following ports: 1900, 49152,
49153, and 49154. Check that the WLAN settings are
the same in your device and compatible PC.
Q: Why can't I see a wireless LAN (WLAN) access
point even though I know I'm within its range?
A: The WLAN access point may use a hidden service set
identifier (SSID). You can only access networks that use
a hidden SSID if you know the correct SSID, and have
created a WLAN internet access point for the network
on your Nokia device.
Q: How do I switch wireless LAN (WLAN) off on
my Nokia device?
A: The WLAN on your Nokia device is deactivated when
you are not connected or trying to connect to another
access point, or not scanning for available networks.
To further reduce battery consumption, you can specify
that your Nokia device does not scan, or scans less
often, for available networks in the background. The
WLAN is deactivated in between background scans.
To modify the background scan settings, do the
following:
1.
Press
, and select
Tools

Settings
>
Connection
>
Wireless LAN
.
2.
To increase the background scan time interval,
select
Scan for networks
. To stop background
scans, select
Show WLAN availability
>
Never
.
3.
To save your changes, select
Back
.
When
Show WLAN availability
is set to
