Wi-Fi is a short-range static wireless connection. To use it for internet access, your device must connect (over Wi-Fi) to a wireless router – such as the one at your favourite coffee shop that allows customers free internet access.

It allows you to browse the internet or stream content anywhere you can access a strong enough signal.

Mobile data is an internet source - such as GPRS, Edge, 2G, 3G or 4G - supplied by your mobile phone provider. Mobile data does not include WiFi. The amount of mobile data available to you will vary based on your mobile contract and is usually limited to a certain number of gigabytes of data each month. Please check the exact amount with your mobile service provider.
