Your phone’s data capabilities let you wirelessly access the Internet or your corporate network

through a variety of connections, including:

Wi-Fi

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

Wi-Fi, 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 Wireless Network

By default, your phone’s Wi-Fi feature is turned off. Turning Wi-Fi on makes your phone able to

discover and connect to compatible in-range Wi-Fi networks (or WAPs - wireless access points).

Turn Wi-Fi on:

1. Press

and tap

> Settings > Connections > Wi-Fi.

2. Tap the ON/OFF switch to turn Wi-Fi On.

Tip: You can also turn Wi-Fi on and off through the Notification panel. Drag the Notification

panel down and tap Wi-Fi.
Note: Wi-Fi networks are self-discoverable, which means no additional steps are required for

your phone to connect to a Wi-Fi network. It may be necessary to provide a user name and

password for certain closed wireless networks.

Scan and connect to a Wi-Fi network:

1. Press

and tap

> Settings > Connections > Wi-Fi.

2. The network names and security settings (Open or Secured) of detected Wi-Fi networks

are displayed.

When you select an open network, you will be automatically connected to the

network.

connect to the network. Enter the password and tap Connect.

You can use the

show password option to display the password as you enter it.
