Wi-Fi is turned on automatically.

Settings > Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi.
2. Slide the Wi-Fi switch to the On position.
3. The device scans for available Wi-Fi networks and displays the
names of those it nds. Secured networks are indicated with a
Lock icon. If the device nds a network that you connected to
previously, it connects to it.
4. Touch a network name to see more details or connect to it, and
type a password if necessary.
5. Or, if your Wi-Fi router supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup, touch
the WPS icon on your tablet, and then touch the same button

To modify a network’s settings, touch & hold the network name.
Add a Wi-Fi network
You can add a Wi-Fi network so your device will remember it,
along with any security credentials, and connect to it automati-
cally when it’s in range. You must also add a Wi-Fi network if the
network does not broadcast its name (SSID), or to add a Wi-Fi net-
work when you are out of range.
To join a secured network, you rst need to learn security details
from the network’s administrator.
1. Turn on Wi-Fi, if it’s not already on.
