Wi-Fi network options
For most Wi-Fi® networks, you won't need to change the network options. If you're having trouble connecting or if you need to
connect manually, you can set the network options yourself. The options available depend on the type of network you're
connecting to. To find out what settings to use, if you're connecting to a home network, see the information that came with
your Wi-Fi router; if you're connecting to an enterprise Wi-Fi network, talk to your administrator; if you're connecting to a
hotspot, see the information provided about the hotspot or talk to an employee at the hotspot who might have details about
how to connect.

Description
Enter the name that you want to see in your list of saved Wi-Fi networks.
If the Wi-Fi network is hidden, type the SSID (the name the network uses to identify
itself). Your BlackBerry® PlayBook™ tablet uses this name to find the network.
If the Wi-Fi network is hidden, select this check box. Hidden networks don't appear
in the list of available networks.
Set the security type that the Wi-Fi network uses.
If you're connecting to an enterprise Wi-Fi network, set the security subtype that
the Wi-Fi network uses.
To use a VPN Profile when connecting to this network, select the profile you want
to use. For more information, see the Security section of the help.
Clear this check box if you need to manually specify an IP address for your tablet.
When you clear this check box, additional options appear. To find out what
information to enter, talk to your administrator.
Set whether the network uses the IPv6 protocol.
Select this check box if you want to connect to a proxy server. When you select this
check box, additional options appear. To find out what options to use, see the
information provided for the proxy server.
If the network spans multiple access points, set whether your tablet should remain
connected when you move from one access point to another.
If necessary, set the root certificate that your tablet should use to verify that it's
connecting to the correct Wi-Fi network. If the network requires a certificate, you
need to transfer it to your tablet before you can connect. For more information, talk
to your administrator.
