Hello,


The Lock symbol next to the WiFi network means it's password protected. Preventing access for users that are don't have the password.


There are 3 different types of Networks you come across

  • Password protected networks (private)
  • Open Networks (Public or Phone thetered hotspots)
  • Public Networks where you need to provide login details in order to access internet.



Kind regards,

K
