I can't connect to a Wi-Fi network
Try one of the following actions:
• On the status bar, tap and verify that the switch is set to On.
• The connection might have timed out. Try connecting again.
• Your BlackBerry® PlayBook™ tablet might be too far away from the wireless access point or wireless router to connect.
Move your tablet closer and try connecting again.
• Verify that you're in a Wi-Fi® coverage area. If you're connecting to a home network, see if other wireless devices are able to connect. If you're connecting to an enterprise Wi-Fi network or a hotspot, talk to your administrator or an employee at the hotspot.
• Verify that the time on your tablet is synchronized with the network time. If the times are different, it could prevent your tablet from connecting (for example, if connecting to the network requires you to have a certificate on your tablet and the certificate has an expiration date).
• If the Wi-Fi network doesn't appear in the list of available networks, the network might be hidden. If you know the network name, try connecting to it manually.
• Verify that the options for the Wi-Fi network are correct. To find out what options to use, for a home network, refer to the information that came with your router; for an enterprise Wi-Fi network, talk to your administrator; for a public hotspot, refer to any information provided for the hotspot or talk to an employee at the hotspot who might have details about how to connect.
• If you switched Wi-Fi networks manually, try switching to another Wi-Fi network.
• If you are using the Push Button Setup method, verify that the access point uses Wi-Fi Protected Setup™, and that it has been set to send its profile. Verify that another device is not also attempting to connect at the same time, and that not more than one access point within range is in this mode. For more information, see the information that came with your router.

About synchronizing Wi-Fi profiles and VPN profiles between your tablet and smartphone
When you connect your BlackBerry® PlayBook™ tablet to your BlackBerry smartphone using BlackBerry® Bridge™, your saved
Wi-Fi® profiles and VPN profiles are automatically synchronized between your tablet and smartphone to make connecting to the networks you use easier. Then, when you use your tablet in a Wi-Fi coverage area where you've previously used your smartphone, your tablet automatically connects to the access point.
For security reasons, Wi-Fi profiles and VPN profiles that are associated with a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server are not synchronized. Passwords for secure networks are also not synchronized.
The order and how quickly your smartphone or tablet attempts to connect to a network is determined by the priority level of a profile. By default, profiles that connect directly from either a tablet or a smartphone have a high-priority level. Profiles that are synchronized through BlackBerry Bridge have priority level 0 (the lowest level). You can change your network profiles on your tablet to increase or decrease the priority, or to add other information, such as passwords for secure networks.
If a profile requires a client authentication certificate, you must import the certificate manually.
About using BlackBerry Bridge with a BlackBerry Enterprise
Server
To help protect your organization's data, when you use BlackBerry® Bridge™ to connect your BlackBerry® PlayBook™ tablet to a smartphone that uses a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server, the following security restrictions apply:
• You can open files on your smartphone only through the BlackBerry Bridge Files application, or from an email attachment.
• You can't save files that you create on your tablet onto your smartphone.
• You can browse your organization's intranet only if your administrator has turned on corporate intranet browsing.
