Connectivity Home network Your device is compatible with UPnP. Using a wireless LAN access point device or a wireless LAN router, you can create a home network and connect compatible UPnP devices that support wireless LAN to the network, such as your Nokia device, a compatible PC, a compatible printer, and a compatible sound system or a TV, or a sound system or TV equipped with a compatible wireless multimedia receiver. Using the wireless LAN function of the Nokia device in a home network requires a working wireless LAN home connection setup and the other target home devices to be UPnP enabled and to be connected to the same home network. You can share media files saved in Gallery with other compatible UPnP devices using the home network. To manage the settings for Home net., press , and select Connect. > Home net.. You can also use the home network to view, play, copy, or print compatible media files from Gallery. See "View media files", on page 87. The home network uses the security settings of the wireless LAN connection. Use the home network feature in a wireless LAN infrastructure network with a wireless LAN access point device and encryption enabled. 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. Your device is connected to the home network only if you accept a connection request from another device; or in Gallery, select the option to view, play, print, or copy media files on your Nokia device or search for other devices in Home net.. Important security information When you configure your wireless LAN home network, enable an encryption method, first on your access point device, then on the other devices you intend to connect to your home network. Refer to the documentation of the devices. Keep any passcodes secret and in a safe place separate from the devices. To view or change the settings of the wireless LAN IAP in your Nokia device, see "Access points", on page 105. If you use the ad hoc operating mode to create a home network with a compatible device, enable one of the encryption methods in WLAN security mode when you configure the IAP. This step reduces the risk of an unwanted party joining the ad hoc network. Copyright © 2007 Nokia. All rights reserved. 85
