The WiFi connection is a connectivity that allows you to link any device with a router wirelessly, thus obtaining access to the Internet without the need for any cable in between. The mobile phones of the South Korean manufacturer Samsung present a small peculiarity in this aspect, since they allow us not only to connect to a router through WiFi but also to program the connection through a timer so that the mobile connects to a network only during a certain time. time of day.
In this article we are going to explain step by step how to program the WiFi on and off on a Samsung mobile. The advantage of this procedure is that we do not need to install any additional application on our mobile, but the whole process is carried out through the terminal's own settings. The only thing we will need to follow this procedure is a Samsung mobile with the Android operating system and an available WiFi connection.
How to program the WiFi on and off on a Samsung mobile
- First, we access the Settings application, which is represented by a gear icon. We can find it both on the Home screen and in the list of applications.
- Once inside, we must click on the " Wi-Fi " option in the " Wireless connections " section. In the event that the mobile phone asks us to first activate said connectivity, we activate it and then we try to access this option again.
- Within the option of " Wi-Fi " we must click on the additional menu button of our mobile phone. It is a button that appears located below the screen, and it is usually represented by drawing several lines in parallel. By clicking on this touch button, a small menu will be displayed in which we will have to press the " Advanced " option.
- By clicking on this option we will have accessed the configuration menu of the wireless connectivity of our mobile. Now we only have to enter the " Wi-Fi Timer " option, select the time at which we want the WiFi to turn on and off and click on the button that appears next to this option (the button must be lit green, which confirms that the option is activated).
This procedure is very useful to forget about having to turn the WiFi on and off every time we go in and out at home (or in the office, for example). All we have to do is enter the approximate time we enter and leave the place where we connect to the WiFi and our mobile will automatically take care of activating / deactivating the connection.
