Virtual private networks (VPNs)
Use your device to connect to virtual private networks (VPNs), which allow you to access
resources inside a secured local network from outside the actual network. For example,
VPN connections are commonly used by corporations and educational institutions for
users who need to access intranets and other internal services when they are outside of
the internal network, for example, when they are traveling.
VPN connections can be set up in many ways, depending on the network. Some
networks may require you to transfer and install a security certificate in your device. For
detailed information on how to set up a connection to your virtual private network, please
contact the network administrator of your company or organization.

Sharing content with DLNA Certified™ devices
You can view or play media content saved to your device on other devices such as, for
example, a TV, or a computer. Such devices must be DLNA Certified™ by the Digital
Living Network Alliance and all devices must be connected to the same
Wi-Fi®
network
in order for content to be shared. You can also view or play content from other DLNA
Certified™ devices on your device.
After you set up the sharing of content between devices, you can, for example, listen to
music files stored on your home computer from your device, or view photos taken with
your device's camera on a large-screen TV.
Playing files from DLNA Certified™ devices on your device
When you play files from another DLNA Certified™ device on your device, this other
device acts as a server. In other words, it shares content over a network. The server
device must have its content sharing function enabled and give access permission to
your device. It also must be connected to the same
Wi-Fi®
network as your device.
