    							Troubleshooting: Mobile network
    I can't connect to the mobile network
    Try the following actions:
    •If your BlackBerry smartphone uses a SIM card, verify that your SIM card is inserted in your smartphone correctly.
    •If your smartphone normally connects to a CDMA network and your smartphone supports international roaming, verify 
    that your smartphone is in global roaming mode and that your SIM card is inserted in your smartphone correctly.
    •Verify that you turned on the connection to the wireless network.
    •Verify that you're connected to your wireless service provider's network. If you switched wireless networks manually, 
    your smartphone remains connected to that wireless network until you select your wireless service provider's network 
    again.
    •If you set a specific speed for wireless network connections, verify that you're in a wireless coverage area that supports  the connection speed.

    About connecting to a Wi-Fi network
    Your BlackBerry smartphone can use the Wi-Fi network instead of the mobile network to visit webpages, send and receive 
    email messages, and so on. When you connect to the Internet with a 
    Wi-Fi network, you might avoid data charges that are 
    associated with using your mobile network, and, in many cases, the connection speed is faster.
    Hotspots are available in many public places. Some hotspots are free to use, while others require payment. Your wireless 
    service provider might provide an application for your smartphone that allows you to log in to a hotspot. If you do not have 
    an application on your smartphone, you might have to set up your own account online and log in manually.
    If you have an access point or router that supports , you can connect to it using Wi-Fi Protected Setup.
    When you connect to a Wi-Fi network, your smartphone saves the connection information so that the next time that you are 
    within range of that network, your smartphone connects to it automatically.
    Connect to a Wi-Fi network
    1.On the home screen, click the connections area at the top of the screen, or click the Manage Connections icon.
    2.Click Wi-Fi Network.
    3.If you want to connect to a public hotspot or to a Wi-Fi network that does not require authentication, select the Show

    							Troubleshooting: Wi-Fi technology
    I can't connect to a Wi-Fi network
    Depending on your BlackBerry smartphone model, the Wi-Fi feature might not be supported.
    Try the following actions:
    •Verify that you turned on the connection to the Wi-Fi network.
    •Verify that you're in a Wi-Fi coverage area. If you're connecting to a home network, see if other wireless devices are able 
    to connect. If you're connecting to an enterprise 
    Wi-Fi network or a hotspot, talk to your administrator or an employee 
    at the hotspot.
    •Verify that the time on your smartphone is synchronized with the network time. If the times are different, it could 
    prevent your smartphone from connecting (for example, if connecting to the network requires you to have a certificate 
    on your smartphone and the certificate has an expiration date).
    •If the Wi-Fi network doesn't appear in the Wi-Fi Network application, it might be hidden. If you know the network name, 
    try connecting to the 
    Wi-Fi network manually.
    •In the Wi-Fi Network application, verify that the options for the Wi-Fi network are correct. To find out what options to 
    use, for a home network, refer to the information that came with your router; for an enterprise 
    Wi-Fi network, talk to 
    your administrator; for a public hotspot, refer to any information provided for the hotspot or talk to an employee at the 
    hotspot who might have details about how to connect.
    •If you switched Wi-Fi networks manually, switch to another Wi-Fi network or set your smartphone to scan for available 
    Wi-Fi networks.
    •If your email account uses a BlackBerry Enterprise Server, your smartphone might prevent you from connecting to 
    certain wireless access points. For more information, contact your administrator.
    •If you're using the Push Button Setup method, verify that the access point is enabled with Wi-Fi Protected Setup, and 
    that it has been set to send its profile. Verify that another device isn't also attempting to connect at the same time, and 
    that not more than one access point within range is in this mode. For more information, see the information that came 
    with your router.
    •If you use PEAP, EAP-TLS, EAP-FAST, EAP-TTLS, or EAP-SIM to connect to a Wi-Fi network, verify that you installed the 
    root certificate for the certificate authority server that created the certificate for the authentication server. The  certificate must be transferred to your smartphone before you can connect to the network. For more information, talk to 
    your administrator.
    •If you use EAP-TLS to connect to a Wi-Fi network, verify that you added your authentication certificate to your 
    smartphone. The certificate must be transferred to your smartphone before you can connect to the network. For more 
    information, talk to your administrator.
