Define how your phone connects to the internet


Does your network service provider charge you a fixed fee for data transfer, or on a pay as you use basis? To use the optimal connection method, modify the WLAN and mobile data settings.

Select and Internet connection > Connect to internet .

If your network service provider charges you a fixed fee, the easiest method is to set your phone to connect to WLAN and mobile data connections automatically, to keep your phone constantly online.

Connect to an available WLAN

Select the WLAN connection and Connect.

In future, your phone connects to the WLAN automatically.

Use a mobile data connection

Select and hold the mobile data connection, and select Use automatically.

Stop using the connection automatically

Select and hold the connection, and select Use manually.

If your network service provider costs depend on the amount of data you use, you may want to select the network manually. If there are no automatically used networks available and you do something that requires an internet connection, you are asked to select a connection.

Request confirmation before using a mobile data connection when outside your home network

Select and Mobile network > Data roaming > Always ask .

To set the phone to connect automatically, select Always allow. Connecting when abroad can raise data transfer costs substantially.

When you connect to a network for the first time, all your credentials and settings for that network are saved, so that you don't have to enter the data every time you connect.

To view a list of your automatically and manually used networks, select and Internet connection > Edit networks .
