Turn Wi-Fi on & connect to a Wi-Fi network

If you’re adding a Wi-Fi network when first setting up your device,
Wi-Fi is turned on automatically.

1. Touch

Settings > Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi.

2. slide the Wi-Fi switch to the on position.

The device scans for available Wi-Fi networks and displays the
names of those it finds. Secured networks are indicated with a
Lock icon. If the device finds a network that you connected to
previously, it connects to it.

3. Touch a network name to see more details or connect to it, and

type a password if necessary.
or, if your Wi-Fi router supports Wi-Fi Protected setup, touch
the

WPs icon on your tablet, and then touch the same but-

ton on your router.

To modify a network’s settings, touch & hold the network name.

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 automati-
cally 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 net-
work when you are out of range.

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

1. Turn on Wi-Fi, if it’s not already on.
2. Touch the

Plus icon at the top of the screen.

3. enter the ssid (name) of the network. if necessary, enter secu-

rity or other network configuration details.

4. Touch Save.
