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.
Note: Using WLAN may be restricted in some countries. For example, in France,
you are only allowed to use WLAN indoors. For more information, contact your local
authorities.
Features that use WLAN, or that are allowed to run in the background while using other
features, increase the demand on battery power and reduce the battery life.
Your device supports the following WLAN features:
•
IEEE 802.11b/g and WAPI standards
•
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 network.
Important: Use encryption to increase the security of your WLAN connection.
Using encryption reduces the risk of others accessing your data.
