The Internet is a major part of your iPad experience and might well be one
of the main reasons you chose to buy a tablet computer. Here’s how to get
online with your iPad, using either a Wi-Fi network or a data connection.
1
To turn on Wi-Fi, go to Settings > Wi-Fi and turn
Wi-Fi on (or you can use the Control Centre; see
Control Centre tutorial), after which, the iPad searches
for all networks in range of your device.
3
If you are in a public hotspot, maybe at a cafe or a
hotel, it’s very unlikely to have security so you can just
connect. You probably need to find out the login details
from whoever is providing the Wi-Fi service.
2
If you’re at home, pick your home network from the list
and enter the security details to be allowed access.
Take care to enter your password correctly, making sure, for
example, that you don’t confuse the letter ‘O’ and a zero.
4
From now on, whenever you are in range of this Wi-Fi
service, the iPad automatically connects to it without
you having to input a password again. If more than one is in
range the iPad rejoins the last network it joined.
