CHAPTER 1

Using Your

Palm®Wi-Fi®Card with the

Treo™700w Smartphone

[ * ] NOTE This guide is for users who are using the Palm®Wi-Fi®card

with a Treo™ 700w smartphone only. If you are using the Wi-Fi card

with a different device such as a Palm OS handheld, refer to the Getting

Started Guide and the documentation on the CD included with the Wi-Fi

card for setup and usage instructions. The CD also contains software

necessary to use the Wi-Fi card with other devices. The Treo 700w

smartphone has this software built in, so you do not need the CD to

use the Wi-Fi card with a Treo 700w smartphone.

Many corporate organizations and public environments, such as coffee

shops, airports, and libraries, offer access to a Wi-Fi network. A Wi-Fi

network is a wireless local area network (WLAN) based on the 802.11b

standard. Some networks based on a different standard, 802.11g, may

allow 802.11b-based devices to connect.

You can use the Wi-Fi card with your Treo 700w smartphone’s built-in

software to set up a Wi-Fi connection and quickly connect to accessible

Wi-Fi networks within range.

Tip

Turning off the

Bluetooth®feature

may improve your

Wi-Fi card

performance. To turn

the Bluetooth feature

off, go to your Today

screen, tap the

Bluetooth icon, and

then uncheck the Turn

on Bluetooth box.

Key Term

Wi-Fi access point

A networking device

with an antenna that

provides wireless

connections to a

larger network.

2 Using Your Palm Wi-Fi Card

CHAPTER 1 Using Your Palm®Wi-Fi®Card with the Treo™700w Smartphone

Inserting and removing

the Wi-Fi card

Insert the card into your smartphone’s

expansion card slot with the Palm logo label

facing the front of the smartphone. Push the

card in until you hear the confirmation tone.

The top of the card extends from the slot

when the card is fully inserted.

To remove the card, push lightly against the

card with your thumb, and then slide the card

out of the expansion card slot.

We recommend that you remove the Wi-Fi card from your smartphone

in the following situations:

• When you are not using the card.

• When you are on an airplane.

• Before you turn on Flight Mode. If you leave the Wi-Fi card in the

expansion card slot, be aware that the Wi-Fi radio automatically

turns on and Flight Mode is canceled when you wake up the screen.

Similarly, if you insert the Wi-Fi card when your screen is on and

Flight Mode is also on, the Wi-Fi radio automatically turns on and

cancels Flight Mode.

[ * ] NOTE See “Regulatory Information” in the Treo 700w smartphone

User Guide for additional guidance on using the Wi-Fi card with your

Treo 700w smartphone.

Tip

When the Wi-Fi card

is inserted, tap the ?

icon in the upper-

right corner of any

Wi-Fi setup or

connection screen for

useful tips.

Using Your Palm Wi-Fi Card 3

Using Your Palm®Wi-Fi®Card with the Treo™700w Smartphone CHAPTER 1

Setting up a Wi-Fi connection

Some Wi-Fi networks are known as open networks because they

broadcast their name (SSID) and do not require a password. Other Wi-Fi

networks broadcast their name but do require a password. Networks

that do not broadcast their name are known as closed networks. Follow

the instructions for the type of network you want to connect to.

The title bar on your smartphone displays an icon to show Wi-Fi

connection status.

Connecting to a network that broadcasts its name

Wi-Fi networks in public places often broadcast their network name.

Your smartphone automatically attempts to detect some network

settings, so you can connect to this type of network with minimal

configuration.

1. Wake up your smartphone’s screen.

2. Insert the Wi-Fi card into the expansion card slot.

3. If the Multiple Networks Detected dialog box appears, select the

network you want to connect to.

Icon Status

Wi-Fi card not inserted.

Wi-Fi card inserted, no network connection

Wi-Fi card inserted, network connection made. When the

arrows in the icon are moving, a network connection is

being attempted.

Key Term

SSID The name that

identifies a Wi-Fi

network. If a network

does not broadcast

its SSID, you must

get the SSID from the

network

administrator in

order to connect to

the network.

Tip

See the User Guide

for your smartphone

for instructions on

waking up the screen.

4 Using Your Palm Wi-Fi Card

CHAPTER 1 Using Your Palm®Wi-Fi®Card with the Treo™700w Smartphone

4. If the New Network Detected dialog box appears, select the network

you want to connect to.

5. If prompted, select whether to use this network to connect to the

Internet (or to your work network using a virtual private network—

VPN), or to connect to your work network.

6. Press Connect to connect to the network.

7. If prompted, enter the password provided by the network

administrator.

Connecting to a closed network

Because closed networks have additional security features, your

smartphone cannot detect the network’s settings; you must obtain the

settings such as network name and authentication from the system

administrator and enter these settings manually. You can also use these

steps to manually create a connection with an open network.

[ * ] NOTE If you are creating a connection manually, be sure to turn

off any unnecessary security or authentication settings on your

smartphone. For example, uncheck the Use IEEE 802.1x network access

control box on the 802.1x tab if it is checked but your network does not

use this feature.

Did You Know

You can conserve

battery power by

removing the Wi-Fi

card or turning off a

Wi-Fi connection

when you are not

going to use it for an

extended time.
