- Swipe down from the top of your screen and tap the Gear icon to get into your settings.
- Tap Network settings or Connections to access your wireless network options.
- Tap Wi-Fi
- On this screen you will see a list of networks. Select one from the list that you aren’t currently using to switch to it.
- If the network is secured, make sure you know the correct login information.
Why this works:
Sometimes a Wi-Fi network just doesn’t work, or maybe it’s causing problems with your Android device. Switching to a different wireless network can help you get your phone connected to the Internet, or it can help you get faster network speeds!
Pro tip:
- Connecting to secured networks that require a password is always safer than public connections. Public connections can put your device and your privacy at risk.
- Getting slow network speeds on your home router? Try looking for another wireless connection that has the same name as the regular network, but has 5G at the end! This will provide you better speeds if your phone is capable of using that network.
