How to Connect WiFi on a Cell Phone (Android) (Quick Menu)
- Swipe down from the top of the screen. This will bring down the notification shade with a list of quick options.
o On some phones (such as Nexus models) you may need to tap the profile icon in the upper right to bring up the quick options. - Tap the arrow icon under Wi-Fi. This will bring up a list of available networks.
o On some models, you may need to tap and hold the Wi-Fi button.
o If your Wi-Fi is toggled off, tapping this button will automatically turn it on. - Tap a network. If the network has public access and is not password protected, your phone will connect to the network and you are finished.
o Password protected networks are indicated by a lock icon.
o If you do not see any available networks, then you may not be in range of any and will have to relocate to connect to one.
o Tap Other Network to manually enter an network name (SSID) if the network is hidden or you do not see it listed. - Enter a password (if prompted). If the network is protected a window will appear with a text field to enter the password.
- Tap Connect. This button is in the lower right corner of the password window. If the password is correct you will be connected to the network.
o If the password is incorrect you will receive an authentication error and will need to re-enter the password or try a different network.
