● WLAN network mode — Select Ad-hoc to
create an ad hoc network, and to allow devices
to send and receive data directly; a WLAN access
point device is not needed. In an ad hoc network,
all devices must use the same WLAN network
name.
● WLAN security mode — Select the encryption
used: WEP, 802.1x (not for ad hoc networks), or
WPA/WPA2. If you select Open network, no
encryption is used. The WEP, 802.1x, and WPA
functions can be used only if the network
supports them.
● Use access point — Select After confirmation
to set the device to ask for confirmation before
the connection using this access point is created
or Automatically to set the device to connect to
the destination using this access point
automatically.
To enter the settings for the selected security mode,
select WLAN security settings.

gateway, and the IP addresses of the primary and
secondary DNS servers. Contact your internet
service provider for these addresses.

Packet data settings
Select Menu > Tools > Settings and
Connection > Packet data.
The packet data settings affect all access points
using a packet data connection.
● Packet data connection — If you select When
available and you are in a network that supports
packet data, the device registers to the packet
data network. Starting an active packet data
connection (for example, to send and receive e-
mail) is quicker. If there is no packet data
coverage, the device periodically tries to
establish a packet data connection. If you select
When needed, the device uses a packet data
connection only if you start an application or
action that needs it.
● Access point — The access point name is needed
to use your device as a packet data modem to a
compatible computer.
