How to Send SMS on Wi

SMS Messenger Client
1. Establish a Wi-Fi connection if your device does not already have one. Connect to the wireless Internet signal in your home, Wi-Fi hotspot or other high-speed local network. Your online SMS messenger will use this connection instead of a standard telephone line to transfer the SMS note to your iPhone recipient.
2. Sign up for an SMS messaging account with an online provider if you would rather personalize your messaging or attach it to a permanent line. Try Google Voice or Skype if you do not have an SMS messaging provider in mind (see Resources). Google Voice provides free SMS for Wi-Fi users in the continental United States. Skype charges for SMS, but may still be worthwhile for a loyal user's Wi-Fi-enabled device. Download and install any necessary applications for handheld devices such as cell phones and smartphones if you do not intend to use the Wi-Fi SMS from a computer.
3. Enter the iPhone telephone number to which you want to send an SMS message. Open the SMS function on your messenger utility and enter the number on its dialpad or by using your keyboard or keypad.
4. Write your SMS note in the provided message field. Complete the note in the same fashion you would send an SMS message from your cell phone using its standard service.
5. Push “Send” to submit your SMS message to the iPhone.

What Is 'Via SMS' on Facebook?

Notifications
SMS notifications deliver a text message to your mobile device when incoming communication takes place with your account. Once you enable SMS notifications, they are delivered automatically until you manually disable the service. To change your SMS settings, go to the 'Account Settings' menu and click on the 'Notifications' tab. Check the box in the 'SMS' column next to a particular type of communication to enable the alerts for it.
Communication Eligible for SMS
Not all communications on Facebook are eligible for SMS notifications. Basic communication, such as incoming private messages and new wall posts, can generate an SMS alert if you enable the service. Less common communication, including being mentioned in a comment or family relationship confirmations, cannot initiate a SMS notification. Other Facebook communication eligible for SMS notifications includes photo tags, photo comments and comments on a link you posted.
Messages
A copy of the private message you send to a friend may also be sent to her phone via SMS, provided she has enabled mobile texts. After you compose your message, check the box next to an image of a cellphone, located just under the message field. When you hover your mouse over the box, a text bubble says 'Also send as a text message.'
Enable Mobile Texts
Before you are able to get SMS notifications or receive a copy of messages, Facebook must link with your cellphone. Go to the 'Account Settings' menu and select the 'Mobile' tab. Click the 'Register for Facebook Text Messages' link and provide your cellphone number and provider. Send a text to the number provided by Facebook, and Facebook sends you a confirmation code. Once you enter the code on Facebook, your cellphone and Facebook account are linked for SMS services.
