Enabling data roaming

Connect to your mobile operator’s partner networks and access data services when

you’re out of your mobile operator’s coverage area.

Using data services while roaming will be costly. Check with your mobile operator

for data roaming rates before you use data roaming.

1. From the Home screen, press , and then tap Settings > Wireless & networks.

2. Tap Mobile networks, and then select the Data roaming check box.

Select the Data roaming sound check box if you’d like HTC Wildfire S to play a sound

so you’ll know when it’s connecting to a roaming network.

Wi-Fi

To use Wi-Fi, you need access to a wireless access point or “hotspot”. The availability

and strength of the Wi-Fi signal will vary depending on objects, such as buildings or

simply a wall between rooms, the Wi-Fi signal has to pass through.

Turning Wi-Fi on and connecting to a wireless network

1. From the Home screen, press , and then tap Settings > Wireless & networks.

2. Select the Wi-Fi check box to turn Wi-Fi on. HTC Wildfire S then scans for

available wireless networks.

3. Tap Wi-Fi settings. The network names and security settings of detected Wi-Fi

networks are displayed in the Wi-Fi networks section.

4. If the wireless network you want to connect to is not in the list of detected

networks, scroll down the screen, and then tap Add Wi-Fi network. Enter the

wireless network settings, and then tap Save.

5. Tap the Wi-Fi network you want to connect to. If you selected an open network,

you will be automatically connected to the network.

6. If you selected a network that is secured with WEP, enter the key and then tap

Connect.

When HTC Wildfire S is connected to the wireless network, the Wi-Fi icon appears

in the status bar and tells you the approximate signal strength (number of bands that

light up).

The next time HTC Wildfire S connects to a previously accessed secured wireless

network, you won’t be asked to enter the key or other security information again,

unless you reset HTC Wildfire S to its factory default settings.
