Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi provides wireless Internet access over distances of up to 300 
feet (100 meters). To use Wi-Fi on your phone, you need access to a 
wireless access point or “hotspot”.
The availability and range of the Wi-Fi signal depends on the number, 
infrastructure, and other objects through which the signal passes.
Turning Wi-Fi on and connecting to a wireless network
Press HOME   > MENU, and then tap Settings > Wireless
controls.
Select the Wi-Fi check box to turn Wi-Fi on. The phone will scan 
for available wireless networks.
Tap Wi-Fi settings. The network names and security settings of 
detected Wi-Fi networks are displayed in the Wi-Fi networks 
section.
Tap a Wi-Fi network to connect. If you selected an open network, 
you will be automatically connected to the network. If you 
selected a network that is secured with WEP, enter the key and 
then tap Connect.
Depending on the network type and its security settings, you 
may also need to enter more information or choose a security 
certificate.
When your phone is connected to a wireless network, the Wi-Fi icon 
appears in the status bar and tells you the approximate signal strength 
(number of bands that light up). If Network notification in Wi-Fi 
settings is enabled, this icon   appears in the status bar whenever the 
phone detects an available wireless network within range.
