Please stop referring to #Internet as "WiFi".
You can have Internet access without #WiFi, and you can have WiFi without Internet access. WiFi is just a mechanism for connecting two or more devices to a network. Like Ethernet, but without cables. It is possible to have networks that aren't connected to the Internet, you know.
Thank you kindly. :P
