Web and Data
The following topics address your phone’s data connections and the built-in Web browser. Additional
data-related features can be found in Accounts and Messaging, Apps and Entertainment, and Tools and
Calendar.
Your phone’s data capabilities let you wirelessly access the Internet or your corporate network through a
variety of connections.
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 or Off
When Wi-Fi is turned on, your device will notify you of available Wi-Fi networks, and you can connect to
the Wi-Fi networks. Turn Wi-Fi off when not in use, to conserve battery power.
1. From home, tap Apps > Settings > CONNECTIONS tab > Wi-Fi.
2. Tap the ON/OFF switch to turn Wi-Fi on or off.
Note: You can also turn Wi-Fi on or off from the Notification Panel. Drag down from the top of the screen,
and then tap Wi-Fi.
Turn Wi-Fi On and Connect to a Wi-Fi 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).
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. From home, tap Apps > Settings > CONNECTIONS tab > Wi-Fi.
2. Tap the ON/OFF switch to turn Wi-Fi on.
3. The network names and security settings (Open network or Secured) of detected Wi-Fi networks
are displayed.
When you select an open network, you will be automatically connected to the network.
