Simultaneous Connections are Possible from Multiple Devices
You can use various Wi-Fi compatible devices such as PCs, tablets, and gaming devices in addition to smartphones.
Up to five devices can be connected simultaneously.
- The number of devices is identified with MAC address.
Reliable Security
Communications may be intercepted or monitored at a public Wi-Fi SPOT that are not encrypted. d Wi-Fi uses the WPA2 system to encrypt wireless sections connected to access point devices for secure communication.
How d Wi-Fi Security Works
The d Wi-Fi offers wireless security between an access point and a wireless LAN device.
When transmitting important information such as personal information through the Internet, we recommend to use additional security such as TLS or VPN*2.
TLS and Internet VPNs ensure security even in wireless LAN areas, and therefore they are able to protect your connection even if the wireless LAN encryption is decoded.
- When you log in to d Wi-Fi, TLS is used for communication between your device and a DOCOMO's server. This encrypts your d ACCOUNT and d Wi-Fi password information to prevent data from being intercepted or tampered with.
- d Wi-Fi SPOTs support IEEE802.1X technology which supports automatic authentication with robust security.
You can configure it on your device.
- You may not use some VPN technologies as d Wi-Fi allocates a private address to your device.
