Wi-Fi During Sleep

By default, when your device enter a sleep mode, your Wi-Fi
connection stays on all the time. If the feature is Never enabled
during sleep that current data usage is taken over by your SIM and
its network connection.

1. From the main Settings page, tap Connections tab ➔ Wi-Fi.

2. Press

and then tap Advanced Keep Wi-Fi on during

sleep.

3. Select an available option:

• Always: maintains your current active Wi-Fi connection even during

sleep.

• Only when plugged in: maintains the active Wi-Fi connection only when

the device detects it is connected to a power supply. This reduced the

drain on your device’s battery.

• Never (increase data usage): shuts off the current Wi-Fi connection

during sleep and diverts any current data usage to the cellular network

connection.

Allow scanning

networks, even when Wi-Fi is turned off.

1. From the main Settings page, tap Connections tab ➔ Wi-Fi.

2. Press

and then tap Advanced.

3. Tap the Always allow scanning field to activate or deactivate

the feature.
