Wi-Fi network settings
Usually, you don't need to change your settings for a Wi-Fi network; however, you might need to change
your settings if you have trouble connecting or if you need to connect manually.
The settings that are available for each Wi-Fi network depend on the type of network you're connecting
to. To find out which settings to use, if you're connecting to a home network, see the information that
came with your wireless router; if you're connecting to a work Wi-Fi network, talk to your administrator; if
you're connecting to a hotspot, see the information provided about the hotspot or talk to an employee at
the hotspot who might have details about how to connect.
SSID
The SSID is the name that the network uses to identify itself. Usually, this field is automatically
filled, but if the Wi-Fi network is hidden, you must enter the SSID to connect.
