Home network
Your device is compatible with Universal Plug and Play
architecture (UPnP). Using a wireless LAN access point
device or a wireless LAN router, you can create a home
network and connect compatible UPnP devices that
support wireless LAN to the network, such as your
Nokia N80, a compatible PC, a compatible printer,
a compatible sound system, a compatible TV, or a sound
system or TV equipped with a compatible wireless
multimedia receiver.
After you have configured the home network, you can
copy, view, or play compatible media files and print images
in Gallery on the other connected compatible devices,
for example, view images stored on your Nokia N80 on a
compatible TV. See “Home netw.”, p. 26 and “Image print”,
p. 33.
To set up home networking in your wireless LAN, first
create and configure your wireless LAN home internet
access point, then configure the devices. On your Nokia
N80, configure the settings in the Home netw. application.
See “Home netw.”, p. 26. To connect a compatible PC to the
home network, on the PC, you must install the Home
Media Server software from the CD-ROM supplied with
your Nokia N80.
After you have completed the necessary configurations in
all devices connected to the network, you can start using
the home network. See “View media files”, p. 27.
The home network uses the security settings of the
wireless LAN connection. Use the home network feature in
a wireless LAN infrastructure network with a wireless LAN
access point device or a router and encryption enabled.
Important: Always enable one of the available
encryption methods to increase the security of
your wireless LAN connection. Using encryption
reduces the risk of unauthorized access to your
data.
To view or change the settings of the wireless LAN internet
access point in your Nokia N80, see “Access points”, p. 99.
Important security information
When you configure your wireless LAN home network,
enable an encryption method, first on your access point
device or router, then on the other compatible devices you
intend to connect to your home network. Refer to the
documentation of the devices. Keep any passcodes secret
and in a safe place separate from the devices.
