Wi-Fi and Network

Turn Wi-Fi+ On or Off

Open 

Settings, go to Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi > 

 > Wi-Fi+, and choose to enable or

disable Wi-Fi+.

l

Your Phone will automatically connect to the optimal network available after Wi-Fi+ is enabled.

l

Wi-Fi+ may automatically switch to your mobile data network, depending on strength of Wi-Fi+
signals in your area. Note that using mobile data to download or view videos and other large
files may incur additional data usage fees. To avoid excessive data charges, purchase an
appropriate data plan.

l

After Wi-Fi+ is enabled, even if Wi-Fi is disabled manually, the device may automatically switch
to a Wi-Fi network when it detects a viable Wi-Fi network you have previously connected to.
