Q: Why can’t the other device see the files stored on
my device in the home network?
A: Make sure that you have configured the home network
settings, content sharing is turned on in your device, and
the other device is UPnP compatible.
Q: What can I do if my home network connection stops
working?
A: Switch off the wireless LAN (WLAN) connection from
your compatible PC and your device, and switch it on
again. If this does not help, restart your compatible PC and
your device. If the connection still does not work,
reconfigure the WLAN settings in both your compatible PC
and device.
Q: Why can't I see my compatible PC in my device in
the home network?
A: If you are using a firewall application in your compatible
PC, check that it allows home media server to use the
external connection (you can add Home media server to
the firewall application's exceptions list). Check from the
firewall settings that the firewall application allows traffic
to the following ports: 1900, 49152, 49153, and 49154.
Some WLAN access point devices have a built-in firewall.
In such cases, check that the firewall in the access point
device does not block traffic to the following ports: 1900,
49152, 49153, and 49154.
Check that the WLAN settings are the same in your device
and compatible PC.
Q: Why can't I see a wireless LAN (WLAN) access point
even though I know I'm within its range?
A: The WLAN access point may use a hidden service set
identifier (SSID). You can only access networks that use a
hidden SSID if you know the correct SSID, and have created
a WLAN internet access point for the network on your
Nokia device.
Q: How do I switch wireless LAN (WLAN) off on my
Nokia device?
A: The WLAN on your Nokia device switches off when you
are not connected or trying to connect to another access
point, or not scanning for available networks. To further
reduce battery consumption, you can specify that your
Nokia device does not scan, or scans less often, for
available networks in the background. WLAN switches off
in between background scans.
To change the background scan settings:
1 Select Menu > Tools > Settings and Connection >
Wireless LAN.
2 To increase the background scan time interval, adjust
the time in Scan for networks. To stop background
scans, select Show WLAN availability > Never.
3 To save your changes, press Back.
When Show WLAN availability is set to Never, the
WLAN availability icon is not shown in the standby
mode. However, you can still manually scan for
available WLAN networks, and connect to WLAN
networks as usual.
