If you move the device to another location within the
WLAN and out of range of a WLAN access point, the
roaming functionality can automatically connect your
device to another access point that belongs to the same
WLAN. As long as you remain within range of access points
that belong to the same network, your device can stay
connected to the network.
Tip: To check the unique media access control (MAC)
address that identifies your device, for example to
configure the MAC address of your device to a WLAN
router, enter *#62209526# in the home screen. The
MAC address is displayed.
