Wireless local area networks (WLANs) allow the device to communicate wirelessly inside a building. Before using the device on a WLAN, the facility must be set up with the required hardware to run the WLAN (sometimes known as infrastructure). The infrastructure and the device must both be properly configured to enable this communication.
To extend the life of the battery, turn off Wi-Fi when not in use.
The
Status
bar displays icons that indicate Wi-Fi network availability and Wi-Fi status.
Refer to the documentation provided with the infrastructure (access points (APs), access ports, switches, Radius servers, and so on) for instructions on how to set up the infrastructure.
After the infrastructure is set up to enforce the chosen WLAN security scheme, use the
Network & internet
settings to configure the device to match the security scheme.
