Wi-Fi network options
For most Wi-Fi networks, you won't need to change the network options. If you're having trouble connecting or if you need
to connect manually, you can set the network options yourself.
The options available depend on the type of network you're connecting to. To find out what settings to use, if you're
connecting to a home network, see the information that came with your wireless router; if you're connecting to an
enterprise Wi-Fi network, talk to your administrator; if you're connecting to a hotspot, see the information provided about
the hotspot or talk to an employee at the hotspot who might have details about how to connect.
Option Description
Name Enter the name that you want to see in your list of saved Wi-Fi networks.
SSID If the Wi-Fi network is hidden, type the SSID (the name the network uses to
identify itself). Your BlackBerry PlayBook tablet uses this name to find the
network.
Hidden SSID If the Wi-Fi network is hidden, select this checkbox. Hidden networks don't
appear in the list of available networks.
Security Type Set the security type that the Wi-Fi network uses.
