Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi provides a fast, seamless connection at home, in the office, and in thousands of AT&T hotspots. Using Wi-Fi is convenient and helps you save on your mobile data usage.

The availability and strength of the Wi-Fi signal will vary depending on objects, such as buildings or simply a wall between rooms, the Wi-Fi signal has to pass through.

Turning Wi-Fi on and connecting to a wireless network

1.From the Home screen, tap > Settings.

2.Tap Wireless & networks, and then select the Wi-Fi check box to turn Wi-Fi on. HTC Jetstream then scans for available wireless networks.

3.Tap Wi-Fi settings. The network names and security settings of detected Wi-Fi networks are displayed in the Wi-Fi networks section.

4.If the wireless network you want to connect to is not in the list of detected networks, scroll down the screen, and then tap Add Wi-Fi network. Enter the wireless network settings, and then tap Save.

5.Tap the Wi-Fi network you want to connect to. If you selected an open network, you will be automatically connected to the network.

6.If you selected a network that requires a passcode, enter the key and then tap Connect.

When HTC Jetstream is connected to the wireless network, the Wi-Fi icon appears in the status bar and tells you the approximate signal strength (number of bands that light up).

The next time HTC Jetstream connects to a previously accessed secured wireless network, you won’t be asked to enter the security information again, unless you reset HTC Jetstream to its factory default settings.

Connecting to a Wi-Fi network with EAP-TLS security

You may need to install a network certificate (*.p12) to HTC Jetstream before you can connect to a Wi-Fi network with EAP-TLS authentication protocol.

1.Save the certificate file to the root folder of the storage card.

2.From the Home screen, tap > Settings.

3.Tap Security > Install from SD card.

4.Select the network certificate needed to connect to the EAP-TLS network.

5.Turn on Wi-Fi and connect to a wireless network.
