Add a Wi-Fi network

You can add a Wi-Fi network so your device will remember it, along with any security credentials, and connect to it automatically when it's in range. You must also add a Wi-Fi network if the network does not broadcast its name (SSID), or to add a Wi-Fi network when you are out of range.

To join a secured network, you first need to learn security details from the network's administrator.

1Turn on Wi-Fi, if it's not already on.

2In the Wi-Fi settings screen, touch Add Network.

3Enter the SSID (name) of the network. If necessary, enter security or other network configuration details.

4Touch Save.

The information about the network is saved. Your device will connect to this network automatically the next time you come within range.

Forget a Wi-Fi network

You can make the device forget about the details of a Wi-Fi network that you added; for example, if you don't want the tablet to connect to it automatically or if it's a network that you no longer use.

1Turn on Wi-Fi, if it's not already on.

2In the Wi-Fi settings screen, touch the name of the network.

3Touch Forget in the dialog that opens.
