If you get a message that says 'Failed to connect to the network GovWifi: Out of range’ it may be because you’re already connected to a different network. You'll need to disconnect from the other network for GovWifi to work.

To disconnect, select the wireless symbol in the bottom right of your screen. A list of wifi networks will appear. Right click on the network name your device is currently connected to. Select the option to disconnect, and then try connecting to GovWifi again.
