The wireless technology that connects computers, tablets, cellphones, and other devices to the internet is known as Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi is a radio signal transmitted from a wireless router to a nearby device, which converts the signal into data that can be seen and used.
When a phone is connected to a network, it usually defaults to Wi-Fi. Also, unless you're on a Wi-Fi network, don't download apps or play multimedia. PCWorld originally published this story, "What You Need to Know About Using the Internet on a Smartphone."
To activate Wi-Fi on your Android phone, follow these steps:
Touch the Apps icon on the Home screen.
Open the Settings app on your phone.
Make sure the Wi-Fi master control icon is turned on. If not, turn on the phone's Wi-Fi radio by sliding the master control from Off to On.
