Increasing Wi-Fi® signal strength There are a number of things you can do to increase the strength of a Wi-Fi® signal: • Move your device closer to the Wi-Fi® access point. • Move the Wi-Fi® access point away from any potential obstructions or interference. • Don't cover the Wi-Fi® antenna area of your device (the highlighted area in the illustration). Your device can only connect to an FCC-approved access point when using 5 GHz WLAN for indoor and outdoor operation. This is because operation in the 5.15 GHz to 5.25 GHz frequency band is only permitted for indoor use. Wi-Fi® settings When you are connected to a Wi-Fi® network or when there are Wi-Fi® networks available in your vicinity, it is possible to view the status of these networks. You can also enable your device to notify you whenever an open Wi-Fi® network is detected. If you are not connected to a Wi-Fi® network, your device uses a cellular data connection to access the Internet (if you have set up and enabled a cellular data connection on your device). By adding a Wi-Fi® sleep policy, you can specify when to switch from Wi-Fi® to cellular data. 28 This is an Internet version of this publication. © Print only for private use.
