About home network
Your device is compatible with Universal Plug and
Play architecture (UPnP). Using a wireless LAN
(WLAN) access point device or a WLAN router, you
can create a home network and connect compatible
UPnP devices that support WLAN to the network,
such as your device, a compatible PC, a compatible
printer, and a compatible sound system or TV, or a
sound system or TV equipped with a compatible
wireless multimedia receiver.
To use the WLAN function of your device in a home
network, you must have a working WLAN home
connection setup and have other UPnP enabled
home devices to connect to the same home
network.
See "Wireless LAN", p. 34.
The home network uses the security settings of the
WLAN connection. Use the home network feature in
a WLAN infrastructure network with a WLAN access
point device and encryption enabled.
You can share media files saved in Gallery with other
compatible UPnP devices using the home network.
