About Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi (short for "wireless fidelity") is a term used for certain
types of Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN). Wi-Fi
communication requires access to an existing and accessible
Wireless Access Point (WAP). These WAPs can either be
Open (unsecured) as within most Hot Spots, or Secured
(requiring knowledge of the Router name and password).

Note: After you complete a connection to an active Wi-Fi

network, the Wi-Fi Calling feature will automatically be
enabled.
