Connecting to Networks and Devices

New network detection and notification

Checkmark the Notify Me box in the Wi-Fi settings screen to be notified
when new networks are detected.

 When Wi-Fi is on and the user launches an application that uses Wi-Fi,

a dialog box will appear when new networks are detected.

 When Wi-Fi is off and the user launches an application that uses Wi-

Fi, the device will turn on Wi-Fi and display a dialog box when new
networks are detected.

 If the Notify Me checkbox is not marked and Wi-Fi is off, the device

will not display a dialog box when new networks are detected.

To add a Wi-Fi network

You can add a Wi-Fi network so the phone will remember it, along with any
security credentials, and connect to it automatically when it is in range. You
can also add a Wi-Fi network manually if it does not broadcast its name
(SSID) or if you want to add a Wi-Fi network when you are out of its range.
To add a secured network, you need to contact the network’s administrator
to obtain the password or other required security credentials.

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

2. From the Wi-Fi settings screen, tap ADD NETWORK.

3. Enter the Network SSID (name) of the network.

If the network is secured, tap the Security dropdown menu

and tap

the type of security deployed on the network.

4. Enter the required passwords and security credentials.

5.Tap Save.

The phone will connect to the wireless network. Any credentials that you

entered are saved, so you’re connected automatically the next time you
come within range of this network.
