Wi-Fi hotspot

Note: You need to subscribe to Wi-Fi hotspot service

to use this feature. Contact your service provider.

You can set up your phone as a Wi-Fi hotspot to

provide portable, convenient internet access to other

Wi-Fi enabled devices.

Setup

Protect your network, add security to your Wi-Fi

hotspot:

Note: Risks can be associated with connecting to the

public internet. Your phone allows you to create a 3G

Mobile Hotspot, which may be accessible by

unauthorized users. It is highly recommended that you

use a password and/or other steps to protect your

phone from unauthorized access.

Find it: > 3G Mobile Hotspot >

> Advanced > WiFi AP mode

Touch a setting to modify it:

• SSID—Enter a unique name for your hotspot and

touch Next.

• Security—Select the type of security you want, and

touch Save: WEP, WPA, or WPA2. Enter a unique

password. Other users can access your Wi-Fi

hotspot only if they enter the correct password.

Note: WEP is the weakest option because it is

highly vulnerable to hacking. WPA2 is recommended

by IEEE.

• Channel—Select a channel that minimizes potential

interference. You may need to try different channels

after your hotspot is active for a time.

Touch Save when the settings are complete.

Activate hotspot

Find it: > 3G Mobile Hotspot > Tap to start

mobile hotspot service

When your Wi-Fi hotspot is active, other Wi-Fi enabled

devices can connect by entering your hotspot’s SSID,

selecting a Security type, and entering the correct

Wireless password.

If you can’t activate the Wi-Fi hotspot:

1 Contact your service provider for the Access Point

Name (APN) settings.

2 Touch Menu > Settings > Wireless & networks

> Mobile networks > Access Point Names > service

provider, then enter the settings from your service

provider.

3 Touch APN type, then enter dun (all lowercase) and

touch OK.
