Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi provides wireless Internet access over distances of up to 300 feet. To use your tablet’s

Wi-Fi features, you need access to a wireless access point or “hotspot.”

The availability and range of the Wi-Fi signal depends on a number of factors, including

infrastructure and other objects through which the signal passes.

Turn Wi-Fi On and Connect to a Wi-Fi Network

Turning on Wi-Fi allows your tablet to discover and connect to compatible in-range Wi-Fi

networks (or WAPs - wireless access points).

When Wi-Fi is turned On, your tablet will notify you of available Wi-Fi networks, and you can

connect to the Wi-Fi networks. Turn Wi-Fi Off when not in use, to conserve battery power.
