Join a Wi-Fi network
Get a new phone or tablet onto your own home network.
Joining a network means picking your own network name from a list and typing its password once.
The device remembers it, and joins by itself every time you come home.
Key points
- Joining is two things: pick the name, type the password
- The device remembers it and rejoins by itself
What to remember
- A Wi-Fi password is typed once per device.
- A device remembers a network until you tell it to forget.
