About WLAN

To use a wireless LAN (WLAN) connection, it must be

available in the location, and your device must be

connected to the WLAN. Some WLANs are protected,

and you need an access key from the service provider

to connect to them.

Note: In France, you are only allowed to use

WLAN indoors.
Features that use WLAN, or that are allowed to run in

the background while using other features, increase

the demand on battery power and reduce the battery

Your device supports the following WLAN features:

IEEE 802.11b/g standard

Operation at 2.4 GHz

Wired equivalent privacy (WEP) with keys up to 128

bits, Wi-Fi protected access (WPA), and 802.1x

authentication methods. These functions can be

used only if they are supported by the network.

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.
