****
Note:** The use of open or unencrypted Wi-Fi networks is not recommended, as these networks are not secured, and your data could be at risk.
Tip: If your Wi-Fi Router was set up by your internet service provider (ISP), you may find a sticker on the bottom of your router indicating your Wi-Fi SSID and password.
