Using WLAN (IEEE 802.11b)

Introduction

WLAN (IEEE 802.11b), refers to certain types of wireless local area network (WLAN) that use specifications in the 802.11 family. Created by the Wi-Fi Alliance, a nonprofit international association to certify interoperability of wireless local area network products. Any device tested and approved by the Wi-Fi Alliance are certified as interoperable with each other even if they are from different manufacturers.

Activating WLAN in your device

To activate WLAN in your device:

1.Tap Start > Settings > Connections tab then tap the Wi-Fi Manager icon.

2.From the Wi-Fi Manager screen, tap Menu then Turn Wi-Fi On.

You can also turn Wi-Fi ON or OFF from the Today screen:

1.Tap the Wi-Fi iconor on the status bar.

2.From the pop-up callout, tap Turn on Wi-Fi.

NOTE:

•When WLAN is used simultaneously with the GPRS, the latter will get signal priority. We recommend not to use WLAN and GPRS at the same time.

•We recommend not to use WLAN and the Bluetooth function at the same time. Disturbance in data transmission is possible since both use the same wireless channel.

•The WLAN and USB connections can not be used at the same time.

•When the battery power is less than 20% the device prompts a warning message whether to continue using WiFi or not. Tap “Yes” to continue using or “No” to disconnect. In any case, we recommend that you plug the power adapter immediately to avoid losing data.
