PC connectivity
Q: Why do I have problems in connecting the device to my
PC?
A: Make sure that Nokia PC Suite is installed and running on
your PC. See the user guide for Nokia PC Suite on the
CD-ROM. For further information on how to use Nokia PC
Suite, see the help function on Nokia PC Suite or visit the
support pages at www.nokia.com.
Q: Can I use my device as a fax modem with a compatible PC?
A: You cannot use your device as a fax modem. However, with
call diverting (network service), you can divert incoming
fax calls to another phone number.
Wireless LAN
Q: Why can't I see a wireless LAN (WLAN) access point even
though I know I'm within its range?
A: It may be that the WLAN access point uses a hidden service
set identifier (SSID). You can only access networks that use
a hidden SSID if you know the correct SSID and have
created a WLAN Internet access point for the network on
your Nokia device.
Q: How do I switch wireless LAN (WLAN) off on my Nokia
device?
A: You cannot switch off WLAN on your Nokia device. To
reduce battery consumption, you can specify that your
Nokia device does not scan for available networks.
To turn off the background scan:
1 Press , and select Settings > Config. > Connection >
Wireless LAN.
2 Change the value of Scan for networks to Never.
3 To save your changes, press Done.
When Scan for networks is set to Never, your Nokia device
still listens to available networks, and you can use available
WLAN networks as usual.
