SMS messages have nothing to do with a Wi-Fi connection. SMS can be sent over a cellular / mobile network as well. Same thing with iMessages. These can also be sent from a Wi-Fi Network or from a Cellular Network. iMessages are sent via Apple Servers and SMS is a feature and service provided by your carrier.
For iMessages to work between two devices-
- Both devices (Sender and Receiver) must be Appel devices (iPhones or iPads etc).
- Both devices must have iMessages activated and set to ON.
If the above requirements are not met then the message is sent as a SMS message.
