How To Set Up Your Wi-Fi On Your iPhone...










Setting up your cellular phone wifi for some folks is as easy as making a peanut butter sandwich.  For some of us, it's just as annoying and complicated as putting together a 10,000 piece puzzle.

Fear not.  Here is my step by step on setting up your wifi on an iPhone.  Don't worry Android owners.  I chose the iPhone first because it is obviosly a very popular phone.  My next entry will be a step by step on an Android wifi set up.  I happen to own both an iPhone and an Android, after ditching my Blackberry a year ago.  I had 4 generations of those phones.  Such a shame.

First you must find the settings icon on your phone.  Here in this picture its on my lower right, two levels up from the bottom of the phone.  Has that mechanical wheel looking picture.  You just tap that with your finger to get to your device settings.

Once you get into your settings, you just look for your Wi-Fi.  In this picture my Wi-Fi is off and my phone is in Airplane Mode.  I did that to hide the name of my wifi network that I was attached to.  Anyway, you should have your Airplane Mode turned off for starters.  Or just simply turn your Wi-Fi Mode on like so.  Just tap it.

This is the next screen you will see for your Wi-Fi.  Turn it "on" with a finger slide.

Now that your Wi-Fi is on, you get to choose your Network from the list of Networks that can be seen from your Wi-Fi on mode.  Now just pick your correct Network and type in the password.  That's it.  You're all set.  Just look for the Wi-Fi connection symbol in the upper left of your phone on top of the screen.  It looks like a bunch of upside down smiles.  That's your connection!


I hope this little quick "how to" proves helpful to someone out there who may be a little confused.  You can always email me for further information.  There's also online forums and chats and probably even YouTube videos.  Just search the appropriate websites.  Take care, until the next time!
