Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi is a wireless networking technology that provides
access to local area networks.

Wi-Fi communication requires access to an existing Wi-Fi
network. Wi-Fi networks can be Open (unsecured), or
Secured (requiring you to provide login credentials).

Your phone supports the 802.11 a/b/g/n Wi-Fi protocols.

searches for available, in-range “hotspots” [also termed
WAPs (Wireless Access Points)].
