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 N93 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.
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.
You can share media files saved in
