Hello. Does this phone have the ability to connect to wi-fi for the internet? And can the data function be turned off?

No, it doesn't have a built-in Wifi. The only way to access the internet through the phone is to buy into the Data plan.

Yes, this phone is a Wifi Enabled Phone, I'm not sure if it would work if you are just using it as a Wifi for Internet usage.

Keep in mind that this is an older generation phone (came out in 2007, I believe). No WiFi, just a regular cellular connection. While it resembles a state-of-the-art "smartphone," it is relatively primitive for accessing the Internet. Think of it a a good cell phone for the money, with which you can text and take photos.

I had the phone without a data plan but it has a very rudimentary 'browser' if you could even call it that... I haven't used it in years but I don't remember it being worth anything internet wise. However maybe the service you get could help prevent any internet usage by not allowing data..

With nokia phones you can keep the setting as prompt (asking for which connection to use) when trying to connect to internet. So any applications when trying to connect to internet you will know and you can just cancel it if you don't want it to.

No... But you can do it wirelessly. Call your internet provider to turn on WiFi. then your phone will be connected to the Internet .

It uses a SIM card for any cellular functions. You can use WIFI for internet without a SIM.

Yes, it's a smart phone. It needs a data plan in case you want to use the internet features outside of a wi-fi network. If not, you can use it with wi-fi only.

Answer to the question "Can this be used without a data plan": Yes. I used it for two years with no data plans. It comes with a wifi to allow you connecting to the internet when wifi is available.

I'm not sure if the phone has the capability to limit data (I bought the phone for my daughters birthday and haven't given it to her yet) however I know that most service providers can disable data. At least AT&T can.

Yes you should be able to go to the WiFi settings on the phone to sign on to the wifi Then you wI'll not be charged for data

No, it is not connected to the internet. It works like a regular land line phone.

No, it is not. Which means you are not required to get a data plan with it. However, as many other non-smart phones it can connect to internet. If you want to avoid any extra charges, you can go under settings and just disable data transfer completely.
