Wireless LAN
Some places, like France, have restrictions on the use
of wireless LAN. Check with your local authorities for
more information.
Your device can detect and connect to a wireless local
area network (WLAN). To use WLAN, a network must be
available in the location and your device must be
connected to it.
WLAN connections
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 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.
See "Connection
manager", p. 108.
You can use WLAN during a voice call or when packet
data 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 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# on
the device keypad. The MAC address is shown on
the device display.
