Your device can detect and connect to a wireless local area network (WLAN). To use a WLAN, a network must be available in the location and your device must be connected to it. 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 have your device show WLAN availability, select Menu > Tools > Settings > Connection > Wireless LAN > Show WLAN availability. If WLAN is available, is shown on the display. Tip: You can also scan for networks in range. WLAN wizard Select Menu > Connectivity > WLAN wiz.. The WLAN wizard helps you find and connect to a wireless LAN. When you open the application, your device starts to scan for available WLANs and lists them. To update the list of available WLANs, select Options > Refresh. To mark up WLANs in the list of found networks, select Filter WLAN networks. The selected networks are filtered out the next time the application searches for wireless LANs.
