that your Toshiba phone has access to a Wireless

LAN channel signal. You can check the current

wireless connection status from the following three

screens on your phone.

Today screen - If your Toshiba phone detects a

Wireless LAN network connection, the Wireless

LAN connection icon is displayed at the top of the

Today screen.

Wireless Manager screen - The current

connection status and signal quality for each

specific wireless channel is displayed on the

Wireless Manager screen with the current

configuration.

Wi-Fi screen - Displays the wireless networks

currently available and allows you to add new

ones if available.

Connecting to a Wi-Fi network

1. Select Start > Settings > Connections >

Wireless Manager. You can see the current

Wi-Fi status displayed in this screen.

2. Highlight Wi-Fi, and then select Menu > Wi-Fi

Settings to configure wireless networks.

3. When the networks are detected, select a

network from the list displayed.

Wireless Manager

The Wireless Manager allows you to easily switch

the Bluetooth and Telephony functionality on/off.
To start the Wireless Manager, either:

• Press the Power key, and select Wireless

Manager from the Quick List, or
