Connections
Your phone’s data capabilities let you wirelessly access the Internet or your corporate network
through a variety of connections including Wi-Fi, 4G LTE and Virtual Private Networks (VPN).
Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi provides wireless Internet access. 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.

information or choose a security certificate.
When your phone is connected to a Wi-Fi network, the Wi-Fi icon (

Note:
The next time your phone connects to a previously accessed, secured wireless network,
you will not be prompted to enter the password again, unless you reset your phone to its
factory default settings or you instruct the phone to forget the network.
