4G Services

Your tablet supports 4G LTE. 4G is a service that must be included in your service plan and
also available in your area. 4G coverage is currently available in only certain markets.
Note: If 4G service is not available in your location, the 4G icon will not appear in the
Notifications area.
Not all services are available on 4G and coverage may default to 3G/separate network where
4G unavailable.
Depending on which icons appear in the Notifications area, your services and features will
change. The following table indicates what functions and features are available when
combinations of these service icons appear:
Icon Description
3G Coverage: The tablet is connected to a 3G network. When data is being
transferred, the arrows are colored.
4G Coverage: The tablet is connected to a 4G network. When data is being
transferred, the arrows are colored.

Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi provides wireless Internet access over distances of up to 300 feet. To use your tablet's
Wi-Fi features, you need access to a wireless access point or "hotspot."
The availability and range of the Wi-Fi signal depends on a number of factors, including
infrastructure and other objects through which the signal passes.

Turn Wi-Fi On and Connect to a Wi-Fi Network

Turning on Wi-Fi allows your tablet to discover and connect to compatible in-range Wi-Fi
networks (or WAPs - wireless access points).
When Wi-Fi is turned On, your tablet will notify you of available Wi-Fi networks, and you can
connect to the Wi-Fi networks. Turn Wi-Fi Off when not in use, to conserve battery power.
