Connectivity

1. What is Wi-Fi®?

Wi-Fi is a generic term used to describe wireless Internet access. A Wi-Fi enabled device (such as a computer, laptop, mobile phone, or e-reader) can connect wirelessly to the Internet if it is in range of a wireless network. Wi-Fi enabled devices connect to the wireless network through access points (or hotspots). Access points can be public (such as at a library, restaurant or bookstore) or can be private (such as at home, work or school).
Public Wi-Fi access points usually don't require a password, but instead require a user to acknowledge terms of use.
Private Wi-Fi access points are usually password protected. Home Internet connection is usually provided by a cable or telephone company, and the wireless access is provided by a small device called a wireless router that is physically connected to the Internet.

2. Is my NOOK wireless?

Yes, your NOOK has built in Wi-Fi allowing you to connect wirelessly to any Wi-Fi hotspot. Connect to your home Wi-Fi, as well as your office, cafes, airports, hotels, and most other public hotspots. Your local Barnes & Noble bookstore offers free Wi-Fi that your NOOK will connect to automatically.

3. I forgot my Wi-Fi password. What should I do?

Ask your network administrator for help.

4. How do I know what my home network is?

If you have another Wi-Fi enabled device, try looking at its settings to determine which Wi-Fi access point it is connecting to. Once you've determined that, select the same wireless network name from the list provided by NOOK.

5. I don't see my home network on the list. What should I do?

It is possible that your network was set up as a hidden network. To add your network:
- Open the Settings app.

- In the left-hand column, select Wi-Fi if it is not already selected.
- Make sure that Wi-Fi is turned on.
- Touch 'Add Wi-Fi network' (which appears at the bottom of the list of networks on the right).
- Fill in the information for your network and touch 'Connect.'

6. What is the lock symbol next to a Wi-Fi hotspot listed in available wireless networks?

The lock symbol represents a secure Wi-Fi network. Be sure to have the password and security information for any secure Wi-Fi network that you attempt to connect to.

7. What should I do if I'm having trouble connecting to Wi-Fi or registering my NOOK?

11. Why is it taking longer for some of my NOOK Books, magazines, catalogs, apps, video and NOOK Kids' books to download?

Enhanced NOOK Books, magazines, and kids' books have richer content and are typically larger in size than NOOK Books. Because of this, downloads for that type of content will take longer than a typical trade book.

12. If I don't have a Wi-Fi network, can I connect NOOK to a network with a cable?

No. NOOK can only connect to the Internet via Wi-Fi connectivity. Please check with your computer hardware vendor or Internet service provider on how to setup a Wi-Fi connection in your home.

No. Your NOOK will store your password once you have entered it.

18. What's the difference between the password for administering my router and the password for gaining access to the Internet?

Acer’s Predator Helios 500 is a high-end gaming laptop that has every part most people would put on their “dream machine” shopping list. Predator It's got a fancy new Intel Core i9 CPU, a full-powered GeForce GTX 1070 GPU (as opposed to lower-clocked Max-Q unit), an SSD and a 2TB HDD, along with a 17.3-inch IPS panel with a 144Hz refresh rate, so it's stuffed with all the latest technology.This is the second laptop I’ve been able to test with Intel new Core i9 'Coffee Lake' CPU, but it's first that uses a 'normal' sized chassis, so it'll be interesting to see if Acer was able to keep it running cool, as it can run a single core all the way up to a fiery 4.8GHz.
