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.
See "Connection settings", p. 156.
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.
"Settings for home network", p. 86.
Settings for home network
To share media files saved in Gallery with other
compatible UPnP devices through WLAN, you must
create and configure your WLAN home internet
access point, then configure the settings for home
network in the
Home media
application.
"WLAN internet access points", p. 35.
"Connection settings", p. 156.
The options related to home network are not
available in applications before the settings in the
Home media
application have been configured.
When you access the
Home media
application for
the first time, the setup wizard opens and helps you
define the home network settings for your device.
To use the setup wizard later, in the
Home media
main view, select
Options
>
Run wizard
, and
follow the instructions on the display.
To connect a compatible PC to the home network,
on the PC, you must install the related software. You
get the software from the CD-ROM or DVD-ROM
supplied with your device, or you can download it
from the device support pages on the Nokia
website.
