LG Electronics P970G manual Connecting to Wi-Fi networks

5.Connecting to Wi-Fi networks

To use Wi-Fi on your phone, you need to access 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 to connect to them.

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

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

1On the home screen, touch

Applications tab and select Settings > Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi settings.

2Touch Wi-Fi to turn it on and begin scanning for available Wi-Fi networks.

•List of available Wi-Fi networks is displayed. Secured networks are indicated by a lock icon.

3Touch a network to connect to it.

• If the network is open, you are prompted to confirm that you want to connect to that network by touching Connect.

• If the network is secured, you are prompted to enter a password or other credentials. (Ask your network administrator for details.)

4 The status bar displays icons that indicate Wi-Fi status.
