2.2.5 How do I know whether my phone is using its mobile data
connection or a Wi-Fi connection to access the Internet?
If a Wi-Fi connection is set up, it is prioritized over the mobile data connection. If
displayed in the upper right corner of the screen, your phone is using a Wi-Fi connection to
access the Internet.

2.2.6 Why can't I connect to a Wi-Fi hotspot?

The password you entered is incorrect. Note that the password is case-sensitive.
The Wi-Fi reception is poor.
2.2.7 What can I do if my phone's Wi-Fi connection automatically
disconnects after the screen turns off?
Change the Wi-Fi sleep policy as follows: Touch Settings > Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi.
Then touch Advanced settings > Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep, and select Always.
Note: By default, Always is selected for Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep. If the settings are
modified, your phone disconnects from the Wi-Fi network when its screen turns off. The
following describes the three options of Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep:
Always: The Wi-Fi connection never disconnects.
Only when plugged in: The Wi-Fi connection never disconnects when the phone is charging.
If the phone is not charging, it disconnects a Wi-Fi connection when it has been idle for 3
minutes.
Never (increase data usage): The Wi-Fi connection disconnects when the phone has been
idle for 3 minutes.
