CONNECTING TO THE WIFI NETWORK
For this procedure to work, you need to be in a WiFi zone that will allow you to connect to it. Every time the ARNOVA is
in range of a network that you have already configured once, it will attempt to make a connection.
* For free access WiFi points, there is no need to enter any special information. For secured networks, you will need either a key (a series of numbers and/or letters)
of the type WEP, WPA, or WPA2. To obtain the exact connection parameters required, contact the Internet service provider.
To configure a new WiFi network, go on the Home screen, tap on the Menu icon , then
select Settings .
In the Settings screen, select Wireless & networks.
If the WiFi is off, tap on the Wi-Fi line to turn it on. Then select Wi-Fi settings. The ARNOVA
will scan for available WiFi networks and display them at the bottom of the screen.
Tap on the network you want to connect to, enter the required network information* and then tap on Connect.
Your ARNOVA will establish a connection to that WiFi hot spot.
