off your data connection and onto your home Wi-Fi is seamless.
This will matter a lot if your network data allowance is low.
Wi-Fi passwords can be a complex mix of letters and numbers,
and it can be tricky to enter them correctly. If you find your Galaxy
won’t connect, maybe you are entering the information incorrectly.
Just choose Show password if you find you are having a problem
and double-check what you are entering as the passwords

Create a Wi-Fi hotspot

If you have a Wi-Fi-only device you want

to connect to the internet when you’re

out and about, like a laptop, you can do

so via your Galaxy. Simply create a Wi-Fi

‘hotspot’ using your Galaxy and then

connect to it with the Wi-Fi-only device.

In Settings, under Network

Connections, tap on Tethering and Wi-Fi

Hotspot. Use the slider to turn Portable

Wi-Fi hotspot on, then make a note of

the password and use it in your other

device to connect.

Tethering via Bluetooth
As well as using Wi-Fi to allow other devices to share your Galaxy’s
internet connection, you can also use Bluetooth in the same way.
The setting is similar to using Wi-Fi.
To get the Bluetooth method to work, go to Settings and
tap on the Tethering and Wi-Fi Hotspot option under Network
Connections. Next you need to tick the box next to Bluetooth
Tethering. This will turn Bluetooth on and any device that’s paired
with your Galaxy will be able to get to the internet through the
connection – pretty impressive.

For open Wi-Fi network

alerts, under Wi-Fi, tap

on the menu icon and

choose Advanced
