Connecting to Wi-Fi
Networks
Wi-Fi is a wireless networking
technology that can provide
Internet access at distances of
up to 100 meters, depending
on the Wi-Fi router and your
surroundings.
To use Wi-Fi on your phone,
you must connect to a wireless
access point, or “hotspot.”Some
access points are open and you
can simply connect to them.
Others are hidden or implement
other security features, so you
must configure your phone so it
can connect to them.
Turn off Wi-Fi when you’re not
using it, to extend the life of your
battery.
The following Status bar icon
indicates your Wi-Fi status.

Advanced. See “Advanced Wi-Fi
settings screen”on page 205.
