The Ericsson W3x uses a relatively low powered processor and is not
designed to be a multi tasking platform. This means that you may
experience problems during high load situations such as simultaneously
downloading a large file through the mobile network and printing a large
document or copying a large file to/from a shared storage device mounted
on the Ericsson W3x. Don’t expect to have full performance on all
simultaneous tasks.
3.8.1.1 Safe Removal of a USB Device
Before removing a USB device from the Ericsson W3x wait until the activity
LED (if any) on the device stops blinking or wait some 30 seconds to be
sure there is not any ongoing/remaining write operations to be made.
3.8.2 Host Name and Workgroup
All devices on the LAN/WLAN that want to access a USB shared storage
device or printer must belong to the same workgroup as the Ericsson W3x.
The following information can be changed on the Sharing page:
