Internet

8.1 Ways of

Connecting to the Internet

Your phone’s networking capabilities allow you to access the Internet or your corporate network through Wi-Fi,

dial-up, or GPRS/3G (GSM/UMTS only). You can also add and set up a VPN or proxy connection.

Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi provides wireless Internet access over distances of up to 100 meters (300 feet). To use Wi-Fi on your

phone, you need access to a wireless access point or “hotspot”.

Note The availability and range of your phone’s Wi-Fi signal depends on the number, infrastructure, and other objects

through which the signal passes.

To turn Wi-Fi on and connect to a Wi-Fi network

Tap Start > Settings, and then tap Communications.

Tap Wi-Fi. Detected wireless networks are displayed on the screen.

Tap the desired Wi-Fi network.

If you selected an open

(unsecured) network, you are

automatically connected to the

network.

If you selected a secured network,

enter the security key and then

tap Done. You are then connected

to the network.

Tap Back to return to the

Communications screen.

Next time you use your phone to detect

Wi-Fi networks, you will not be prompted

to enter the network key of the previously

accessed Wi-Fi network (unless you perform

a hard reset which will erase custom

settings on your phone).

Notes • 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 username and password for certain closed wireless networks.

• To turn off Wi-Fi, on the Communications screen, tap the OFF/ON slider at the right side of the Wi-Fi item.
