User manual

● WLAN network name — Select Enter manually or
Search for networks. If you select an existing
network, WLAN network mode and WLAN
security mode are determined by the settings of its
access point device.
● Network status — Define whether the network
name is displayed.
● WLAN network mode — Select Ad-hoc to create
an ad hoc network and to allow devices to send and
receive data directly; a WLAN access point device is
not needed. In an ad hoc network, all devices must
use the same WLAN network name.
● WLAN security mode — Select the encryption
used: WEP, 802.1x (not for ad hoc networks), or
WPA/WPA2. If you select Open network, no
encryption is used. The WEP, 802.1x, and WPA
functions can be used only if the network supports
them.
To enter the settings for the selected security mode,
select WLAN security settings.
For more information, see the extended user guide on
the product support pages of the Nokia website.

connection. If you select When needed, the device
uses a packet data connection only if you start an
application or action that needs it.

to use your device as a packet data modem to a
compatible computer.
● High speed packet access — Enable or disable the
use of HSDPA (network service) in UMTS networks.
