About home network

Your device is compatible with 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 television, or a sound system

or a television 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. 97.

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.
