In a nutshell

Fuss-free connections to all your hotspots.

What’s the point?

Forget fiddling with Wi-Fi settings through your phone. Funnel them all in using DeviceScape and connect to any hotspot, trouble-free!

Is it free?

Yep. Zero pounds and zero pence.

Sold! How do I do it?

Step 1: Download and install

Point your computer at www.DeviceScape.com and download the app for Nokia phones. Transfer it to your handset using Bluetooth or a USB cable and follow the instructions to install it. Once it’s onboard, head back to your web browser and register your handset.

Step 2: Add your APs

Each Wi-Fi hotspot you use is referred to as an access point, or an AP. Use DeviceScape’s web interface to add each service provider you use (such as T-Mobile or The Cloud) as well as personal hotspots or those at friends’ houses. You can also add Wi-Fi details for networks at work. Anywhere you use wireless internet should be added in here.

Step 3: Update your APs

Lastly, DeviceScape’s website will need to transfer your Wi-Fi login details to your handset. Fire up DeviceScape on your phone and tap ‘Options’ followed by ‘Update my neworks.”

Step 4: Connect!

Now, with all your Wi-Fi details transferred to your phone, just wander into a hotspot, fire up the web-going app of your choice, then choose DeviceScape when your handset asks how to connect. DeviceScape will work out which login details to use and automatically connect you. Simple!
