1.In Connection setup: Name and type, define the following:

Connection name—Enter a descriptive name for the connection.

Connection type:—SelectWLAN (wireless local area network).

Select Next to proceed.

2.The device asks whether you want to scan for available WLAN networks. Select Yes to start the scan, or No to skip it.

If you select Yes, all available WLAN networks are shown with information about each WLAN connection:

•Name of the WLAN network

• if the WLAN network is already defined for an internet connection setup that you have saved in the device

•WLAN signal strength

•Security level of the WLAN connection:

—No security (for example, a public access point in an airport)

—Medium security (wired equivalent privacy WEP authentication)

—High security (Wi-Fi protected access WPA authentication, including WPA1 and WPA2)

The security level of the network affects the settings that are shown when you select Next.

Select the desired connection and Next to proceed.

If you select No to skip the scan for WLAN networks, the following settings are shown:

Network name (SSID)—Enter the name of the WLAN network. If you create an ad hoc network, ensure that the name of the network is unique. When you connect to the internet over WLAN, the connection is based on this information. If the field is dimmed and cannot be edited, the scanned SSID contains characters entered in an unknown character set, and not standard character sets (UTF-8) as the device expects.

Network is hidden—You must select this option if the name of your WLAN network is hidden. When this option is selected, your device actively searches for the hidden WLAN when you establish an internet connection.

Network mode—SelectInfrastructure or Ad hoc. The infrastructure mode is used with the internet connections.

Security method—SelectNone (no security), WEP (medium security), WPA pre-shared key (high security), or WPA with EAP (high security).

N810, N800 specifications

The Nokia N800 and N810 are groundbreaking Internet tablets that were launched in the mid-2000s, showcasing Nokia's push into portable computing and mobile internet devices. With their sleek design and innovative functionality, these devices catered to a growing demand for connectivity and multimedia on the go.

The Nokia N800, released in early 2007, featured a 4.13-inch touchscreen display with a resolution of 800x480 pixels, making it perfect for browsing the web, reading emails, and watching videos. It was powered by a Texas Instruments OMAP 2420 processor, providing adequate performance for most tasks. The device came equipped with 256 MB of RAM and 256 MB of internal flash storage, expandable via a SD card slot. Its built-in Wi-Fi capabilities allowed seamless access to the internet, while Bluetooth support enabled connectivity with other devices.

The standout feature of the N800 was its operating system, Maemo, a Linux-based platform that supported a wide range of applications. This open-source environment allowed developers to create software tailored to the needs of users, promoting a sense of community and collaboration. The device was notable for its ability to handle VoIP calls, enabling users to make phone calls over the internet, adding versatility to its functionality.

In late 2007, Nokia unveiled the N810. This successor came with several enhancements, including a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, making text input much more convenient for users. The N810 featured a slightly improved processor, 400 MHz OMAP 2420, and continued to offer the 4.13-inch touchscreen. The internal memory was expanded to 1 GB, alongside better graphics performance.

Another key upgrade in the N810 was the inclusion of GPS technology, which catered to users looking for navigation solutions. The device also supported a more extensive range of internet services and applications, leveraging the capabilities of its updated Maemo operating system. With support for Adobe Flash and enhanced media playback, the N810 became an even more formidable tool for media consumption.

Both the N800 and N810 were notable for their long battery life, which made them ideal for extended use during travel or in locations without immediate access to power. In summary, the Nokia N800 and N810 marked significant steps in the evolution of portable internet devices, blending communication, media, and computing power in stylish and user-friendly packages. While they may not have achieved widespread commercial success, they laid the groundwork for future innovations in the realm of mobile computing.
