How to Connect android Tablet to Wi-Fi network

To access the Wi-Fi settings on a tablet that runs Android, you can either touch the Settings icon on the Home screen or open up the App screen and select Settings. Next, touch Wireless and Networks and select Wi-Fi. If your tablet runs Android 4.0, you’ll also need to slide the Wi-Fi switch to the On position. Click WiFi Settings and your tablet will then scan the area for available wireless networks. If you see a lock icon next to the name, you’ll need to know the security credentials to connect to it. To connect to a specific network, touch the network name, and if prompted, enter the password for the network.

You can also add a Wi-Fi network to your device’s list so that it will remember the credentials and automatically connect to it when the network is in range.

To do so, navigate to the Wi-Fi Settings and select Add Network. Enter the network name, sometimes referred to as the SSID (Service Set Identifier), and select Save. If you want your tablet to no longer automatically connect to a network, open the Wi-Fi Settings screen, touch the network name, and select Forget from the dialog box.
