Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi is a wireless networking technology. Wi-Fi technology can provide wireless Internet connection over distances of
up to 100 meters, however the connectivity of the Wi-Fi depends on the Wi-Fi router, and the surrounding environment in
which it operates.
By accessing a wireless access point or "hotspot" the tablet can be connected to the internet. Some access points are
open and can be easily connected to, but others are hidden or have security protection such as authentication or
encryption, which will require configuration to gain access.
Wi-Fi settings allows you to turn Wi-Fi on or off, turn the open network notification on or off, connect to a Wi-Fi network
and add Wi-Fi networks.
Open the Settings list. (Through the shortcut on the Home Screen, Applications screen, or Status Bar.)
Touch Wireless & networks, and then touch Advanced.
The tablet is able to connect to various wireless networks and devices. Including Wi-Fi data networks, and Bluetooth
devices such as headsets for voice and data transmission.
