In this article, the example of HTC Flyer and Apple iPad describes how to configure WiFi on the tablet. The difference between the two devices is the type of operating system installed on them.

Router

The first stage of that, WiFi on the tablet, is the connection and configuration of the router. First, we choose the place to install it. This can be a table, a shelf or even a wall (in this case you will need to couple a pair of dowels in the wall for fastening). The location should be chosen so that the incoming wire from the provider and the socket with 220 V are next. Then the first one connects to the blue connector on the router. The power supply is installed in the socket, and its cord is inserted into the socket of the router. At this stage, you can not do without a stationary PC or laptop. They connect to any of the 4 remaining sockets using a separate cord. We turn it on by pressing the corresponding button. After downloading the router we go to its settings from the PC. To do this, start the browser and enter 192.168.1.1. In response, you will need to enter the login and password specified in the documentation for the router. Then in the section called "Wireless networks" we set the name of the access point and password. In this case, you must select the type of encryption WPA2 and perform its automatic reboot. Then the PC turns off and the router is ready for use.

Again, the algorithm of its connection is universal and can be used on various other devices running this OS. The order of setting it in this situation is as follows. Go to "Applications \\ Settings \\ Wireless Networks". Here we turn On the next stage we return to the "Applications". Find the utility WiFi. Run it. Then do the scan. In the list of found networks we find the one that was set at the previous stage. We connect to it. If necessary, we enter the password. Then start the browser and work with the Internet.

Apple tablets

Now let's look at how to connect iPad's iPad tablet. There are later modifications, but the algorithm remains unchanged. First, go to the "Settings" and choose WiFi there. Turn on the adapter. Then in the "Select network" list, we find the one that we previously specified in the step. If necessary, enter the key for access. Then close the "Settings". We launch the browser and start to surf the Internet.
