Use encryption to increase the security of your Wi-Fi connection. Using encryption

reduces the risk of others accessing your data.

Wi-Fi connections

To use a wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) connection, you must create an internet access point

(IAP) for Wi-Fi. Use the access point for applications that need to connect to the

internet.
A Wi-Fi connection is established when you create a data connection using a Wi-Fi

internet access point. The active Wi-Fi connection ends when you end the data

connection.
You can use Wi-Fi during a voice call or when packet data is active. You can only be

connected to one Wi-Fi access point device at a time, but several applications can

use the same internet access point.
When the device is in the offline profile, you can still use Wi-Fi (if available).

Remember to comply with any applicable safety requirements when establishing

and using a Wi-Fi connection.
Tip: To check the unique media access control (MAC) address that identifies your

device, enter *#62209526# in the home screen.
