104 Getting Connected
Next time you use your device to detect wireless networks, you
will not see the pop-up message windows again, and you will not
be prompted to enter the network key of the previously accessed
wireless network (unless you perform a hard reset which will erase
custom settings on your device).
Note Wi-Fi networks are self-discoverable, which means no additional steps are
required for your device to connect to a Wi-Fi network. It may be necessary
to provide a username and password for certain closed wireless networks,
however.
To save battery power while connected to a wireless network
1. Tap Start > Settings > Connections tab > Wireless LAN to open the
Wireless LAN Settings screen.
2. On the Power Mode tab of the Wireless LAN Settings screen,
move the Power Save Mode slider to a position that optimizes
performance with the least power consumption.
For example, move the slider to the left (Best Performance) to have
the optimal WLAN performance; move to the right (Best Battery) to
obtain the maximum battery usage.

three screens of your device:
