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.

To turn Wi-Fi on and connect to a wireless network

1.Press HOME > MENU, and then touch Settings > Wireless controls.

2.Select the Wi-Ficheck box to turn Wi-Fi on. The phone will scan for available wireless networks.

3.Touch Wi-Fi settings. The network names and security settings (Open network or Secured with WEP) of detected Wi-Fi networks are displayed in the Wi-Fi networks section.

4.Touch a Wi-Fi network to connect. When you selected an open network, you will be automatically connected to the network. If you selected a network that is secured with WEP, enter the WEP (security) key and then touch Connect.

Notes • The next time your phone connects to a previously accessed secured wireless network, you will not be prompted to enter the WEP key again, unless you reset your phone to its factory default settings.

Wi-Fi networks are self-discoverable, which means no additional steps are required for your phone to connect to a Wi-Fi network. It may be necessary to provide a username and password for certain closed wireless networks.
