Wi-Fi
To use Wi-Fi, you need access to a wireless access point or "hotspot". The availability
and strength of the Wi-Fi signal will vary depending on objects, such as buildings or
simply a wall between rooms, the Wi-Fi signal has to pass through.
Turning Wi-Fi on and connecting to a wireless network
1. From the Home screen, press
2. Select the Wi-Fi check box to turn Wi-Fi on.
HTC Wildfire S then scans for available wireless networks.
3. Tap Wi-Fi settings.
Detected Wi-Fi networks will be listed in the Wi-Fi networks section.
If the wireless network that you want is not listed, tap Add Wi-Fi network to
manually add it.
4. Tap the Wi-Fi network you want to connect to.
If you selected a secured network, you'll be asked to enter the network key or
password.
5. Tap Connect.
When HTC Wildfire S is connected to the wireless network, the Wi-Fi icon
in the status bar and tells you the approximate signal strength (number of bands that
light up).
The next time HTC Wildfire S connects to a previously accessed secured wireless
network, you won't be asked to enter the key or other security information again,
unless you reset HTC Wildfire S to its factory default settings.
