Important security information

26 September 2008 No Comment

When you configure your wireless LAN 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.

To view or change the settings of the wireless LAN internet access point in your device, see ‘Access points’, 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.

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 wireless LAN in a network that does not have
encryption, switch off sharing Nokia N81 files with other devices, or do not share any private media files. To change sharing settings, see ‘Home media settings’.
