Home network

Your device is compatible with Universal Plug and Play
architecture (UPnP). Using a wireless LAN access point
device or a wireless LAN router, you can create a home
network and connect compatible UPnP devices that
support wireless LAN to the network, such as your Nokia
N95, a compatible PC, a compatible printer, and a
compatible sound system or TV, or a sound system or TV
equipped with a compatible wireless multimedia receiver.

Using the wireless LAN function of the Nokia N95 in a
home network requires a working wireless LAN home
connection setup and the other target home devices to be
UPnP enabled and to be connected to the same home
network.

The home network uses the security settings of the
wireless LAN connection. Use the home network feature in
a wireless LAN infrastructure network with a wireless LAN
access point device and encryption enabled.

You can share media files saved in
