   No businesses nearby,  this is a residential area.   
   The only time I tried Wi-Fi is an app for Epson printer I have.   
   It didn't allow me to print from this phone so I turned Wi-Fi OFF.   
      
   I figure having it off show one less ssid broadcast to all my neighbors who use   
   that function.
