Write Wi-Fi connection information to an NFC tag
Turn on NFC on your device.
By writing Wi-Fi connection information to an NFC tag, you can allow others to connect to a password-protected Wi-Fi
network with a simple tap of a device. This is helpful, for example, if you want to let guests use your home Wi-Fi network
when they visit.
If the Wi-Fi network requires a username and password, for example, a Wi-Fi network at work, you can't write the Wi-Fi
connection information to an NFC tag.

Set a static IP address for your Wi-Fi connection
By default, when you connect your device to a Wi-Fi network, your device assigns a local network assigned IP address to
the connection. You can set a static IP address that doesn't change each time you connect to a Wi-Fi network.
You must be within range of the Wi-Fi network to change the Wi-Fi settings.
1. Swipe down from the top of the screen once using two
fingers, or twice using one finger.

Change advanced settings for your Wi-Fi connections
You can change advanced settings for your Wi-Fi connections. For example, you can set whether your Wi-Fi connection
remains active when your device sleeps and you can change the Wi-Fi frequency band. You can also find the Media Access
Control (MAC) address and IP address for your device.
