Wi-Fi connection question

[tim56]

Hi
I cannot find a topic on this on here. What do you prefer when leaving your house leaving your Wi-Fi connection on or turn it off? Thank you

Well if your in a LTE area you should turn your WiFi off and experience some LTE which is suppose to be faster than your internet speed but I usually turn mines off

I never turn my wifi off, but I do have the option to Ask to join networks "OFF". That way it is not constantly asking me if I want to join networks. When I get home or to work, those networks are already recognized and my phone will automatically connect. I have not noticed any degredation of battery life with wifi left on.

Ha! But, a counter argument to leaving wifi on...just read a story in WSJ about stores tracking your movements and shopping habits through wifi connections to the store routers. If you are worried about people tracking you, good idea to turn off wifi out of the house!

I turn the wifi off as one of the tips to have your battery charge last longer thruout the day
