ure your WiFi connection. Each time you start a program that requires an Internet
connection, the ARCHOS will attempt to make a connection to the Internet.
For these procedures to work, you need to be in a WiFi/3G zone that will allow
you to connect to it.
Certain applications use a specific network (for example: UPnP
streaming is specific to the WiFi, sending SMS messages only works via the 3G/2G).
