Important security

information

When you configure your WLAN home network,

enable an encryption method on your access point

device, then on the other devices you intend to

connect to your home network. Refer to the

documentation of the devices. Keep any passcodes

secret and in a safe place separate from the devices.
You can view or change the settings of the WLAN

internet access point in your device.

See "Access

points", p. 170.

If you use the ad hoc operating mode to create a

home network with a compatible device, enable

one of the encryption methods in

WLAN security

mode

when you configure the internet access

point.

See "Connection settings", p. 169.

This step

reduces the risk of an unwanted party joining the

ad hoc network.
Your device notifies you if another device attempts

to connect to it and the home network. Do not

accept connection requests from an unknown

device.
If you use WLAN in a network that does not have

encryption, switch off sharing your files with other

devices, or do not share any private media files.

See

"Settings for home network", p. 101.

points", p. 41.See "Connection settings", p. 169.

The options related to home network are not

available in applications before the settings in the

Home media application have been configured.

the first time, the setup wizard opens and helps you

define the home network settings for your device.

main view, select

, and

follow the instructions on the display.
To connect a compatible PC to the home network,
