About Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi (short for "wireless fidelity") is a term used for certain types of
Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN). Wi-Fi communication requires
access to an existing and accessible Wireless Access Point (WAP).
These WAPs can either be Open (unsecured) as within most Hot
Spots, or Secured (requiring knowledge of the Router name and
password).
Note:
After you complete a connection to an active Wi-Fi network, the
Wi-Fi Calling feature will automatically be enabled.
Activating Wi-Fi
By default, your device’s Wi-Fi feature is turned off (deactivated).
Activating Wi-Fi allows your device to discover and connect to
compatible in-range WAPs (Wireless Access Points).
