1. Turn on Wi-Fi, if it’s not already on.
2. In the Wi-Fi settings screen, touch Menu > Advanced.
These are the settings you can adjust:
• Network notication. By default, when Wi-Fi is on, you re-
ceive notications in the Status bar when your tablet de-
tects an open Wi-Fi network. Uncheck this option to turn off
notications.
• Keep Wi-Fi during sleep. To conserve mobile data usage, your
tablet stays connected to Wi-Fi when the screen goes to sleep.
Touch this option to change this default behavior: either to
stay connected to Wi-Fi only when the tablet is connected to
a charger (when battery life isn’t a problem), or never to stay
connected to Wi-Fi during sleep.
• Avoid poor connections: Check to automatically avoid us-
ing networks with a low-quality or intermittent Internet
connection.
• Wi-Fi optimization: Check to minimize battery usage when Wi-
Fi is on.
This screen also displays the following information:
• MAC address. The Media Access Control (MAC) address of
your tablet when connected to a Wi-Fi network.
• IP address. The Internet Protocol (IP) address assigned to the
tablet by the Wi-Fi network you are connected to (unless you
used the IP settings to assign it a static IP address).
To turn Wi-Fi on or off, go to Settings > Wireless
& networks > Wi-Fi.
To manage data usage and mobile hotspots, go to
Settings > Wireless & networks > Data usage.
