Your device notifies you if another device attempts to
connect to it and the home network. Do not accept
connection requests from an unknown device.
If you use wireless LAN in a network that does not have
encryption, switch off sharing files with other devices, or
do not share any private media files. To change sharing
settings, see "Home network settings", on page 80.

When you access the home network application for the
first time, the setup wizard opens, and helps you to define
the home network settings for your device. To use the
setup wizard later, in the home network main view, select
Options > Run wizard, and follow the instructions on the
display.
To connect a compatible PC to the home network, on the

the DVD-ROM supplied with your device.
