Connecting to the Internet
iPhone connects to the Internet automatically whenever you use Mail, Safari, YouTube,
Stocks, Maps, or Weather. iPhone does the following, in order, until connected:
 Connects over the last Wi-Fi
network you used that’s available.
 If no previously used Wi-Fi networks are available, iPhone shows a list of Wi-Fi
networks in range. Tap a network and, if necessary, enter the password to join.
Networks that require a password show ¥ next to them.
 If no Wi-Fi networks are available or you choose not to join any, iPhone connects to
the Internet over EDGE .
If no Wi-Fi networks are available and EDGE is not available, iPhone cannot connect to
the Internet. Turning on airplane mode disables both Wi-Fi and EDGE.
Note: Because iPhone uses EDGE for the phone, you cannot use the Internet over EDGE
when you’re on a call. To talk on the phone and use Internet applications at the same
time, connect over a Wi-Fi network.
Wi-Fi
iPhone can join AirPort and other Wi-Fi networks at home, at work, or at Wi-Fi hot spots
around the world.
When iPhone is connected to a Wi-Fi network, the Wi-Fi icon
in the status bar at the
top of the screen shows connection strength. The more bars you see, the stronger the
connection.
m To see all the Wi-Fi networks in range, from the Home screen choose Settings > Wi-Fi.
Tap a network to join it.
Many Wi-Fi networks can be used free of charge, and some require a fee. To join a
Wi-Fi network at a hot spot where charges apply, in most cases you can open Safari to
see a webpage that allows you to sign up for service.
For information about configuring Wi-Fi settings, see “Wi-Fi” on page 94.
EDGE
EDGE allows Internet connectivity over the cellular network, available through AT&T’s
wireless service. Check AT&T’s network coverage in your area for availability.
You can tell iPhone is connected to the Internet over EDGE if you see
bar at the top of the screen.
in the status
If you’re outside AT&T’s network, you may be able to use EDGE from another carrier.
Roaming charges may apply.
Note: While iPhone is actively transferring data over EDGE—downloading a webpage,
for example—you may not be able to receive calls. Incoming calls may go to voicemail.
