The Connections Optimizer works by searching for available "remembered" Wi-Fi networks. If you
do not leave your Wi-Fi antenna on all the time, you will only notice the Connections Optimizer
operating at certain times of the day in a small number of locations on the network. Your Wi-Fi
antenna will conserve battery by scanning for connections periodically (not continuously), and if no
connection is achieved, the antennas will be turned off. You may also manually turn the antennas off
during the scan period.
To facilitate quality assurance and enable feature enhancements, information is collected about your
battery levels, Wi-Fi and network connections and usage. No personal information is collected.
