Wireless LAN
Your device can detect and connect to wireless local
area networks (WLAN). Using a WLAN, you can connect
your device to the internet and compatible devices that
have WLAN support.
About WLAN
To use a wireless local area network (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.
Using WLAN may be restricted in some countries. For
example, in France, you are only allowed to use WLAN
indoors. For more information, contact your local
authorities.
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
life.
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.
