Install a root certificate on your device
You might not be able to connect to some WLANs until you install a root certificate on your BlackBerry® device. You can install
the root certificate on your computer, and then use the certificate synchronization tool of the BlackBerry® Desktop Software to
synchronize the root certificate between your device and your computer. For more information, see the Help for the
BlackBerry Desktop Software, or contact your administrator.
About using WLAN with VPN and software tokens
If you have a WLAN enabled BlackBerry® device and if your organization uses a VPN to control access to its network, you might
be able to log in to the VPN and access your organization's network using a WLAN. If you have a WLAN enabled device, you
might also need a software token to connect to your organization's network using a WLAN.
