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

increase the demand on battery power and reduce
the battery life.
There may be restrictions for WLAN use in some
countries. Check with your local authorities
for more information.
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

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.
