Note: By default, Always is selected for Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep. If the settings are
modified, your phone disconnects from the Wi-Fi network when its screen turns off. The
following describes the three options of Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep:
Always: The Wi-Fi connection never disconnects.
Only when plugged in: The Wi-Fi connection never disconnects when the phone is charging.
If the phone is not charging, it disconnects a Wi-Fi connection when it has been idle for 3
minutes.
Never (increase data usage): The Wi-Fi connection disconnects when the phone has been
idle for 3 minutes.
2.3 Can I use my phone as a mobile Wi-Fi hotspot and
access the Internet from another device using my phone's
data connection?
Yes.
Choose Settings > Wireless & networks > More > Tethering & portable hotspot >
Portable Wi-Fi hotspot.
After a device connects to your phone over Wi-Fi, you can access the Internet from that
device using your phone's mobile data connection.
To set the hotspot name and encryption mode, go to Portable Wi-Fi hotspot.
2.4 Can I connect my phone to a Wi-Fi hotspot with a static
IP address to access the Internet?
Yes.
Touch Settings > Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi. On the Wi-Fi screen, touch a hotspot. In the
displayed dialog box, select Show advanced options. Touch IP settings and select Static.
Enter the IP address (mostly 192.168.1.xxx), gateway address (mostly 192.168.1.1), subnet
mask or network mask (255.255.255.0), and domain name (DNS address).
When your phone uses the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) to access the
Internet over Wi-Fi, it must wait for the router to assign it a dynamic IP address, which takes
time. By specifying a static IP address for your phone, this issue is resolved.
2.5 How do I set my phone to work as a modem and
provide Internet access for computers?
1. On the home screen, touch Settings.
2. Go to Wireless & networks, and touch More > Tethering & portable hotspot.
3. Touch USB tethering.
