Connecting Devices to your Wi-Fi Home Network

Connecting your smartphone, tablet, or entertainment/gaming device to your Wi-Fi home network takes just a few steps and gives you access to the Internet and your email without using your data plan.

If you need to locate your Wi-Fi settings and have not previously changed the default Wi-Fi settings, locate the sticker on the bottom of your gateway. The Wi-Fi password is a 10-digit number located in brackets.

To connect your device:

Ensure that the Wi-Fi functionality on your device is On.
From your device's wireless connection settings, search for the Wi-Fi network name to which you wish to connect (located on the side or bottom of your gateway).
Enter the Wi-Fi password to connect to the network.

Apple iPad

Tap Settings.
Select Wi-Fi, and then tap ON.
From Choose a Network, select the Wi-Fi network name to which you wish to connect.
Enter the Wi-Fi password, and select Join. Once connected, a check mark appears next to the network name, and the Wi-Fi icon displays in the status bar.

Samsung Galaxy

Press the Home key, and then press the Menu key.
Tap Settings.
Tap Wireless and Network, and then tap Wi-Fi Settings.
If the radio is not enabled, tap Wi-Fi to turn it on.
Press the Menu key and tap Scan.
Select the Wi-Fi network name to which you wish to connect.
Enter the Wi-Fi password and select Connect.

Amazon Kindle

Press the Home button, and then press the Menu button.
Navigate to Settings by moving the 5-way controller down, and then press the 5-way controller to select.
Tap View, next to Wi-Fi Settings, and then select the Wi-Fi network name to which you wish to connect.
Enter the Wi-Fi password. Press the Symbol key to enter numbers or characters not present on the Kindle keyboard.
Choose Submit.

Barnes & Noble NOOK

On your Home screen, tap the Wi-Fi icon.
Set the Wi-Fi to ON.
