Connecting to networks
Your tablet can connect to a variety of networks and devices, mobile
networks for voice and data transmission, Wi-Fi data networks and
Bluetooth devices, such as headsets. This chapter will describe how to
connect to different networks.
Connecting to mobile networks
When you assemble your tablet with a SIM card from your wireless service
provider, your tablet is configured to use your provider’s mobile networks
for transmitting data.
Your tablet is configured to work with many mobile carriers’ networks. If
your tablet does not connect to a network when you insert a SIM card and
turn it on, contact your carrier to obtain the details of its access point name.
Disabling data when roaming
1. Open the Settings screen.
2. Tap Wireless & networks → Mobile networks, and uncheck Data
roaming.
With Data roaming unchecked, you can still transmit data with a Wi-Fi
connection.
Editing or creating a new access point
If you and your wireless service provider determine that you need to
change the settings of your current access point name (APN) or to create a
new one, you must obtain the APN and detailed settings from your provider.
1. Open the Settings screen.
2. Tap Wireless & networks → Mobile networks → Access Point
Names.
3. Tap an existing APN to edit it, or tap New APN to create a new one.
Enter the APN settings that you obtained from your wireless service
provider by tapping each setting that you need to edit.
4. When you finished, tap Save.
If you have created a new APN, tap it in the APNs screen to start using
it.
