Wi-Fi®
Use Wi-Fi® connections to surf the Internet, download applications, or send and
receive emails. Once you have connected to a Wi-Fi® network, your device
remembers the network and automatically connects to it the next time you come
within range.
Some Wi-Fi® networks require you to log in to a web page before you can get
access. Contact the relevant Wi-Fi® network administrator for more information.
Available Wi-Fi® networks may be open or secured:
•
Open networks are indicated by next to the Wi-Fi® network name.
•
Secured networks are indicated by next to the Wi-Fi® network name.
Some Wi-Fi® networks do not show up in the list of available networks because they do not
broadcast their network name (SSID). If you know the network name, you can add it manually
to your list of available Wi-Fi® networks.

WPS
WPS (Wi-Fi® Protected Setup) is a wireless networking standard that helps you
establish secure wireless network connections. If you have little background
knowledge of wireless security, WPS makes it easy for you to set up Wi-Fi Protected
Access (WPA) encryption to secure your network. You can also add new devices to
an existing network without entering long passwords.
Use one of these methods to enable WPS:
•
Push button method – simply push a button on a WPS-supported device, for
example, a router.
•
PIN method – your device creates a random PIN (Personal Identification Number),
which you enter on the WPS-supported device.
