The infrastructure operating mode allows two kinds of communication: wireless devices
are connected to each other through a Wi-Fi/WLAN access point device, or wireless
devices are connected to a wired LAN through a Wi-Fi/WLAN access point device.
In the ad hoc operating mode, devices can send and receive data directly with each
other.
Wireless LAN settings
Select Menu > Settings and Connectivity > Wireless LAN > Options > Settings.
Select from the following:
Show WLAN availability — Select whether
is displayed when a wireless LAN (WLAN)
is available.
Tip: To access the WLAN Wizard application and view the available options, select the
WLAN icon, and in the pop-up window, select the highlighted text next to the WLAN
icon.
Scan for networks — If you set Show WLAN availability to Yes, you can select how
often the device searches for available WLANs and updates the indicator.
Internet connectivity test — Select whether you want the device to test the internet
capability of the selected WLAN automatically, to ask for permission every time, or to
never perform the connectivity test. If you select Run automatically or allow the test
to be performed when the device asks for it, and the connectivity test is performed
successfully, the access point is saved to the internet destinations.
To view advanced settings, select Options > Advanced settings. Changing the
advanced settings for the WLAN is not recommended.
