This quick guide aims to help you with quick network selection profiles for the Nokia

you can select the Quick Ad hoc profile to get a list of available peer-to-peer networks, or the

To find the quick network selection profiles in the Nokia C110/C111 Wireless LAN Card user
interface:
• Click the Profiles icon on the left icon bar in the Manager window.
3. PURPOSE OF THE QUICK NETWORK SELECTION PROFILES
Quick network selection profiles enable users to get a list of all available networks and to be
able to join networks instantaneously, without the need to change network settings manually.
4. USING THE QUICK INFRASTRUCTURE PROFILE
Note: When you choose to use the Quick Infrastructure profile, your network
settings will be changed. In the Quick Infrastructure mode, you will obtain your IP

To start using the Quick Infrastructure profile:

2. Click Apply.
If your network settings need to be changed, the system prompts you to restart you
computer. Restart your computer.
3. If the system prompts you for your network password, press ENTER. Do not click
Cancel. Network protocols are not loaded if you click Cancel on the logon screen.
4. When your operating system starts, a list of available networks is displayed.
5. Select the network you wish to log on to and click Join.

ensure that all peer-to-peer users are in the same workgroup.
