like any wifi device, you don't use your mobile 3G data plan when connected to wifi, but you must have authorized access to the specific wifi network you are connecting to

Sorry I don't know why it showed I hit yes in my previous answer. But no this does not require wifi.

Siffert the question asked was if the phone would work with wi-fi without a data plan, not whether it would work where there is no wi-fi. The person wanted to use it at home on their wi-fi network without a data plan which from what AT&T; customer service says the answer is yes you can access your wi-fi without a data plan. You only need a data plan to access internet when not around a wi-fi connection.

This is not a wireless system, so no wifi is needed. And you can setup the system without internet, thanks.

Yes, it has wifi. I'm not sure if you can turn off data, i never tried it. I don't have the phone anymore.

You can use wifi only without going through a carrier. However, if you have a data network packet with your carrier you can use it with your SIM card and still get wifi. Otherwise you do not need carrier for you to be able to use the internet. I hope this helps.

It does have wifi built in, which means in order to connect it to the internet you have to have access to a wifi connection somewhere! Now if you were asking if it is capable of having its own mobile data plan like the I pad or the Galaxy tablet then NO it doesn't! In order to put it on the internet you have to be somewhere where the internet is available like your home network or coffee shop or McDonalds etc. Hope that helps you out!

Yes. There are two apps for this device one is got wifi only and the other is for non-wifi. I have yet to access the non-wifi app so I don't know how it looks. But I do know the capability is there. Both apps use your IP address to set up and a password to access if desired.

No, the model I have does not. I'm not sure if there is a different model that does. I wanted wifi so I can monitor and change it while away from home via my iPhone.

No it does not. It has built-in WiFi and Bluetooth only and it is not data capable.

No wifi. you need to have Internet on your cell phone plan, and if you use internet on this phone it's not Internet friendly the keys & screen will literally drive you nuts!

Yes, you can use it as Wifi only, there's no service requirement. I'd make sure you buy the tablet from a reputable buyer though, otherwise it'll come pre-loaded with adware.

In order to use the internet services on this phone without wifi, you will have to have a data plan.

It uses a SIM card for any cellular functions. You can use WIFI for internet without a SIM.
