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.
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.
