Connecting to a hidden Wi-Fi network

A Wi-Fi network might be hidden, which means the network name isn't
broadcasted. In this case, it won't appear in the list of available networks
on the Wi-Fi Settings screen and a notification won't appear when the
network is in range. To connect to a hidden Wi-Fi network when it's in
range, you'll need to enter the network name and password.

The network name and password are case sensitive.

1. Swipe down from the top edge of the screen with one finger.

2. Tap All settings > Wi-Fi.
3. Make sure that Wi-Fi is turned on.

4. Tap manage.

5. Tap

, enter the network name, and then tap add.

6. On the Sign in screen, enter the password, and then tap done.
