Connecting to Networks and Devices

Wi-Fi

With Wi-Fi, you can use high-speed Internet access within the coverage of the wireless access point (AP). Enjoy wireless Internet using Wi-Fi, without extra charges.

Connecting to Wi-Fi networks

To use Wi-Fi on your phone, you need to access a wireless access point or ‘hotspot’. Some access points are open and you can simply connect to them. Others are hidden or use security features; you must configure your phone to be able to connect to them.

Turn off Wi-Fi when you're not using it to extend the life of your battery.

NOTE: If you are out of the Wi-Fi zone or have set Wi-Fi to OFF, additional charges may be applied by your mobile operator for mobile data use.

Turning Wi-Fi on and connecting to a Wi-Fi network

1Touch > Apps tab > Settings > Wi- Fi from the WIRELESS & NETWORKS tab.

2Set Wi-Fi to ON to turn it on and start scanning for available Wi-Fi networks.

3Tap the Wi-Fi menu again to see a list of active and in-range Wi-Fi networks.

•Secured networks are indicated by a lock icon.

4Touch a network to connect to it.

•If the network is open, you are asked to confirm that you want to connect to that network by touching Connect.

•If the network is secured, you are prompted to enter a password or other credentials. (Ask your network administrator for details)

5The status bar displays icons that indicate Wi-Fi status.

Bluetooth

You can use Bluetooth to send data by running a corresponding application, not from the Bluetooth menu as on most other mobile phones.

NOTE:

•LG is not responsible for the loss, interception or misuse of data sent or received via the Bluetooth wireless feature.

•Always ensure that you share and receive data with devices that are trusted and properly secured. If there are obstacles between the devices, the operating distance may be reduced.
