Wi-Fi Getting Started Guide
Your Palm™ Tungsten™ C handheld contains a built-in 802.11b radio that enables
you to connect to a Wi-Fi network or to other Wi-Fi–enabled devices. A
Wi-Fi
network
is a wireless local area network (LAN), such as an 802.11b network.
NOTE
You must have access to a home or corporate network or a service plan with a
network service provider (sold separately), as well as proximity to a wireless access
point, to use Wi-Fi on your handheld.
Setting up Wi-Fi
You can set up Wi-Fi on your handheld for a range of network types, including
networks that broadcast their SSID without encryption and encrypted networks.
The Wi-Fi setup procedure varies depending on the type of network and any
network security policies. Generally, for nonencrypted networks you use the
following procedure; for encrypted networks you use the procedure presented in
“Setting up encrypted networks” later in this guide.
NOTE
You will likely need to contact your network administrator to obtain the correct
network settings when setting up Wi-Fi to connect to your corporate network.
To set up Wi-Fi on your Tungsten C handheld (nonencrypted networks):
1.
Tap the Wi-Fi Setup icon
in the Applications Launcher on your handheld.
2.
Tap Next. The handheld searches for all available networks.
