Page 20 Connecting To The Internet
English
ÂConnecting to the Internet
This tablet can utilize Wi-Fi data networks to connect to the Internet.
Wireless Wi-Fi technology can provide Internet access at distances of over 300 feet; however, this distance can be af-
fected by your surrounding environment and Wi-Fi router.In general, being closer to Wi-Fi router improve performance.
Requirements
In order to connect to the Internet, you will need either of
the following:
A wireless router or access point with a broad-
band Internet connection
The tablet has 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi radio. The tablet will also
work on wireless routers that only support 802.11 b/g.
A minimum connection speed of 64 Kbps is rec-
ommended. Faster speeds will enable a better
Internet experience.
You will need to know the name of your network (SSID),
as well as the password or other credentials if your
network is secured. These settings can usually be found
on the administration webpage of your wireless router.
Please refer to your wireless router’s documentation for
help, or ask your network administrator for details.
You may encounter open Wi-Fi networks, or “hot
spots.” These networks are usually congured
so that you can simply connect to them without
needing to know its settings; the tablet will ob-
tain all the information it needs from the router
automatically.
