Define how your phone connects to the internet
Your phone automatically checks for and connects to an available known network
when a network connection is needed. Selection is based on the connection settings,
unless there are application-specific settings applied.

An access point can be a mobile data connection or a Wi-Fi connection.
You can collect access points in a destination list, and rearrange the priority order
within the list.
Example: If a Wi-Fi access point is ranked above a mobile data access point in a
destination list, the phone will always try to first connect to the Wi-Fi access point,
only connecting to the mobile data access point if the Wi-Fi network is not available.
