Wi-Fi wirelessly connects a device to the Internet through access points

that can be up to 30 meters away. Wireless access points may be

provided by your service provider, your employer, coffee shops, airports,

and other gathering places. Your device must wirelessly connect to these

access points—or "hotspots"—before you can use your device to connect

to the Internet.

The procedures in this article show you how to enable or disable Wi-Fi on

your Windows Mobile device. It will also offer other optional configuration

steps that may assist with your MDM 2008 SP1 wireless deployment,

including the following:

 Enabling or disabling Wi-Fi

 Setting up a Wi-Fi connection

 Editing a Wi-Fi connection

 Deleting a Wi-Fi connection

 Changing Wi-Fi settings

 Adjusting Wi-Fi power mode settings

Important:

With most devices, Wi-Fi is turned off when you first start your device. To

minimize drain on the battery, Wi-Fi is turned off automatically every time

that you turn off your device. You must turn it on when you want to use it.
