TIPS:
- To get the correct WiFi password (or settings) for the network, contact the WiFi network provider.
- If your WiFi is on and you are in range of a network that you previously connected to, your device will
automatically attempt to connect to it.
- To keep your WiFi connection ON when the device is on sleep, select the Menu icon in the ‘WiFi’ page. Then
select on the right-top corner icon select Advanced > Keep WiFi on during sleep > Always.
When entering a WiFi password,
we recommend that you select
‘Show password’ so you can see the
characters you are typing.
