Defining other WLAN settings

To access the other WLAN settings, select Menu > Tools > Settings > Connection > Wireless LAN.

In Show availability, select whether the device should show WLAN availability (Yes or Never). If background scanning is enabled (Yes), the device will detect the availability of WLAN automatically. Various applications can use this information to know when a WLAN network is available. The availability of a WLAN network will be indicated in the user interface with an icon in the top right corner of the screen.
If background scanning is disabled (Never), then WLAN networks will only be scanned for when an application is establishing a connection to the Internet.
If Show availability is set to Yes, set Scan for networks to the desired value (Every minute, Every 2 minutes, Every 5 minutes, Every 10 minutes).
Press Back to save the settings.

Note: Selecting Never for Show availability reduces battery consumption.
