First steps
Establishing a connection to the local network
Your phone must be connected to the local network before it can connect to the Internet and
before you can operate it from a PC.
The device checks to see if a network connection already exists. The network connection is
automatically established if the phone has automatically been assigned an IP address from a
DHCP server in the network. If this is the case, the following screen will not appear and you
can skip to
£
page 20.
If your phone has no network connection, you will need to configure the network manually.
Depending on the type of network, you will need the following information about the con-
figuration:
u If the network uses IP protocol version 4 (IPv4) with a static IP address, you will need:
The device IP address, the network subnet mask, the IP addresses of the standard gateway
and DNS server.
u If the network uses IP protocol version 6 (IPv6):
IP addresses automatically: select IPv6 as Network Type. The connection is then estab-
lished automatically.
IP addresses statically: the device IP address, the address prefix length and the DNS server
IP address.
If there is still no network connection, you will then be asked whether you wish to configure
the connection manually.
