Wi-Fi

With Wi-Fi, you can use high-speed Internet access within the coverage of the
wireless access point (AP). Enjoy wireless Internet using Wi-Fi, without extra
charges.

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 use security features; you must configure your phone to
be able to connect to them. Turn off Wi-Fi when you're not using it to extend
the life of your battery.

NOTE: If you are out of the Wi-Fi zone or have set Wi-Fi to OFF, additional
charges may be applied by your mobile operator for mobile data use.
