Connecting to Wi-Fi Networks

Wi-Fi is a wireless networking technology that can provide Internet access at distances of up to 100 meters, depending on the Wi-Fi router and your surroundings.

To use Wi-Fi on your phone, you must connect to a wireless access point, or “hotspot.” Some access points are open and you can simply connect to them. Others are hidden or implement other security features, so you must configure your phone so it can connect to them.

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

The following Status bar icon indicates your Wi-Fi status.
