In the Wi-Fi settings screen, check Network notification.
You can uncheck this option to stop receiving notifications.

Adding a Wi-Fi network

You can add a Wi-Fi network so the tablet will remember it, along with any
security credentials, and connect to it automatically when it is in range. You
must also add a Wi-Fi network to connect to it, if it does not broadcast its
name (SSID), or to add a Wi-Fi network when you are out of range.
To join a secured network, you need to contact the network’s administrator
to learn what security scheme is deployed on it and to obtain the password
or other required security credentials.
1.

Turn on Wi-Fi if it is not already on.

2.

In the Wi-Fi settings screen, tap Add Wi-Fi network.

3.

Enter the Network SSID (name). If the network is secured, tap the
Security menu and then tap the type of security deployed on the
network.

4.

Enter any required security credentials.

5.

Tap Save.
The tablet will connect to the wireless network. Any credentials that
you enter will be saved, so you can connect automatically the next
time you come within range of this network.

Forgetting a Wi-Fi network

You can make your tablet forget about the details of a Wi-Fi network that
you added. For example, if you don’t want the tablet to connect to it
automatically or if it is a network that you no longer use.
1.

Turn on Wi-Fi if it’s not already on.

2.

In the Wi-Fi settings screen, tap the name of the connected network.

3.

Tap Forget in the dialog that opens.

Connecting to Bluetooth devices

Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology that
devices can use to exchange information over a distance of about 8
meters. The most common Bluetooth devices are headphones for making
calls or listening to music, hands-free kits for cars, and other portable
devices, including cell phones.

This tablet does not support Bluetooth connections via ad-hoc network.

To connect to a Bluetooth device, you must turn on your tablet’s Bluetooth
radio. The first time you use a new device with the TOSHIBA LT170 Tablet,
you must “pair” them so that they know how to connect securely to each
other. After that, you can simply connect to a paired device.
