Choosing
a
connection
Your BlackBerry device is capable of a wide range of connections, to increase what you can do with your
device and how it interacts with other devices. Take a look at the list of connections to learn about the
different types of connections, some tips for when to use each connection, and maybe learn a few things
you didnht know you could do.

connections
Mobile
networkSettingsUser Guide134 
						

							A mobile network connection allows your BlackBerry device to make calls and, if you have a data
plan, use data services such as Internet browsing. In some locations, such as in a hospital or on an
airplane, you need to turn off your mobile network connection, but usually you can just leave your
mobile network connection on.
Wi-Fi
A Wi-Fi network connection is another way to get data services on your device, but unlike using the
mobile network, using Wi-Fi doesnht add charges to your data plan. Your device is designed to try
to use saved Wi-Fi networks before it tries to use the mobile network for basic data functions such
as using the Internet or downloading apps. You can leave Wi-Fi on so that as soon as youhre in
range of a saved Wi-Fi network, your device connects to it automatically, but remember that if you leave Wi-Fi on all the time your battery can drain faster.
Connections
between
devicesUSB You can use a USB cable to create a two-way connection between your BlackBerry device and
your computer. Your device appears on your computer as a mapped drive. If you turn on the USB
Mass Storage Mode feature, your device appears on your computer as a removable storage
device. You can usually use a USB connection to drag files between your device and your
computer, depending on the features of your computer.
You can use an HDMI cable or a wireless display adapter to connect your BlackBerry device to
another device such as a TV or computer monitor. You can display the screen of your BlackBerry device on the other device.
Bluetooth
technology
Bluetooth wireless technology allows you to create a direct connection between your BlackBerry
device and another Bluetooth enabled device. Although you can transfer files over a Bluetooth
connection, because of its ability to stream content, Bluetooth connections are more commonly
used for actions such as playing the music on your BlackBerry device through a separate speaker
or making calls from a headset that is using your BlackBerry devicehs mobile network connection.
NFC
NFC is a short-range wireless technology thaths used for quickly creating connections between
your BlackBerry device and other NFC-enabled devices or NFC tags. With NFC you donht need to
enter pairing information to make a connection, so iths useful for on-the-go actions such as
transferring contact cards with people you meet, or grabbing information from a poster that contains an NFC tag. Depending on your wireless service provider and the applications you haveinstalled on your BlackBerry device, NFC can also be used to turn your device into a digital wallet
to allow you to do things such as make payments with your BlackBerry device.SettingsUser Guide135 
						

							Shared
Internet
connections
You can use your BlackBerry devicehs connection to the mobile network to allow other devices to access
the Internet. This functionality is particularly useful if you want to browse the Internet on your laptop or
Wi-Fi only tablet but you donht have access to a Wi-Fi network.Internet
tethering
You can use Internet tethering when you only have one device that you want to connect to the
Internet through your BlackBerry devicehs mobile network connection. You can connect the device
to your BlackBerry device using a USB cable or, if both devices are Bluetooth enabled, you can use
Bluetooth technology instead.
Mobile
Hotspot
You can use Mobile Hotspot mode to connect up to eight devices to your BlackBerry device. (The
number of devices that you can connect depends on your wireless service provider.) Connecting your devices using Mobile Hotspot mode is like connecting to a Wi-Fi router; you can use the Wi-Fi
connections on your devices, but you donht need access to a Wi-Fi network.
VPN
connections
You can connect your BlackBerry device to a virtual private network (VPN) over your mobile network or
using a Wi-Fi connection. While your device is connected to the VPN, you can send data to and receive
data from the private network across the public network.
Turn
on
airplane
mode In some places, such as on an airplane or in a hospital, you need to turn off all the connections on yourBlackBerry device. Airplane mode lets you quickly turn off your connections and, when youhre done
using airplane mode, turning off airplane mode restores the connections that were previously turned on.
1. On the home screen, swipe down from the top of the screen.
2. Tap 
 Settings .
3. Turn on the  Airplane
Mode  switch.
Add
a
VPN
profile
You need a Wi-Fi or VPN connection before you can add a new VPN profile.
A VPN profile contains the information that you need to log in to your organizationhs network over a VPN
or Wi-Fi connection. You might have one or more VPN profiles on your BlackBerry device, depending on the options that your administrator sets for you.
If you use a work account that is supported by an Enterprise Mobility Management solution from
BlackBerry, some VPN profiles might be automatically added and you donht have to manually add a VPN profile. If you donht see an option to add a VPN profile, then your administrator has turned off this type of
connection.

If youhre not sure if your device is setup for roaming, or what roaming fees will apply, iths a good idea to check with your wireless service
provider before you travel.

wireless
networks

device must be connected to a GSM or UMTS network.
