Establishing a WLAN connection
This chapter describes how you can establish a WLAN 
connection. It uses a Web browser connection as an 
example, but other kinds of WLAN connections, such as an 
ad hoc connection to your printer, work the same way.
To establish a WLAN connection:
1
Make sure you have a valid user name and password for 
the network and that you have created a WLAN IAP as 
described in “Creating a WLAN Internet Access Point 
for a WLAN access point” on page 4.
2
Switch on your Nokia E61.
3
Select Menu
→ 
Web
.
4
Enter the URL of the Web page that you want to visit, 
and press 
Go to
.
5
If necessary, select the IAP you created previously, or 
select 
Search for WLAN
 to select from all available 
WLANs.
6
When your browser is redirected to the authentication 
page, enter your user name and password.
You can now use the connection just like any other 
connection. If you experience problems with the WLAN 
connection, make sure that you are within the range of 
the access point.
7
When you are finished, press 
Options
 
Exit
 to close the 
connection and the browser.
To close the connection, but leave the browser open,
