Getting Connected

6.1 Connecting to the Internet

Your phone’s networking capabilities allow you to access the Internet through data connection or Wi-Fi.

6.2 Data Connection

Settings for connecting to the mobile operator’s 1xRTT/EVDO network are already preconfigured on your device, and your device is ready to connect to the Internet.

6.3 Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi provides wireless Internet access over distances of up to 300 feet (100 meters). To use Wi-Fi on your phone, you need access to a wireless access point or “hotspot”.

Note The availability and range of the Wi-Fi signal depends on the number, infrastructure, and other objects through which the signal passes.
