About WLAN

Your device can detect and connect to

wireless local area networks (WLAN).

Using a WLAN, you can connect your

device to the internet and compatible

devices that support WLAN.
To use a WLAN connection, you need the

following:

WLAN must be available in your

location.

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.

An internet access point created for

WLAN. Use the access point for

applications that need to connect to

the internet.

A WLAN connection is established when

you create a data connection using a

WLAN internet access point. The active

WLAN connection ends when you end

the data connection.
You can use WLAN during a voice call or

when packet data is active. You can only

be connected to one WLAN access point

device at a time, but several

applications can use the same access

point.
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.
