Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi settings determine whether iPad uses local Wi-Fi networks to connect to the Internet. If a Wi-Fi network isn’t available, or if you turn Wi-Fi off, then iPad connects to the Internet over your cellular data network (on iPad Wi-Fi + 3G only).

Turn Wi-Fi on or off: Choose Wi-Fi, then turn Wi-Fi on or off.

Join a Wi-Fi network: Choose Wi-Fi, wait a moment as iPad detects networks in range, then select a network. If necessary, enter a password and tap Join. (Networks that require a password appear with a lock icon.)

Once you join a Wi-Fi network, iPad automatically joins it whenever the network is in range. If more than one previous network is in range, iPad joins the one most recently used.

When iPad joins a Wi-Fi network, the Wi-Fi icon in the status bar at the top of the screen shows signal strength. The more bars you see, the stronger the signal.

Set iPad to ask if you want to join a new network: Choose Wi-Fi, then turn “Ask to Join Networks” on or off.
