About home network
Your device is compatible with Universal Plug and Play
(UPnP) and certified by Digital Living Network Alliance
(DLNA). You can use a wireless LAN (WLAN) access point
device or a WLAN router to create a home network. Then
you can connect compatible UPnP devices that support
WLAN to the network. Compatible devices may be your
mobile device, a compatible PC, sound system, or
television, or a compatible wireless multimedia receiver
connected to a sound system or a television.
You can share and synchronise media files in your mobile
device with other compatible UPnP and DLNA certified
devices using the home network. To enable the home
network functionality and manage the settings, press

play media files from home network devices on your
device or on other compatible devices such as a PC, sound
system, or television.

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.
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. This step reduces the
risk of an unwanted party joining the ad hoc network.
