GPRS Settings

uPhone includes pre-configured GPRS connection profiles to connect to a GPRS network. When the GSM driver is enabled uPhone selects the appropriate pre-configured profile based on the service provider information on the installed SIM card.

Before connecting to GPRS, you need to confirm and save the selected uPhone GPRS profile (or create one) in uPhone GPRS Settings, then enter the ISP information in Microsoft’s connection manager.

The default profiles are for a modem connection. However, you can also configure GPRS for VPN or Proxy Server connections by creating a GPRS connection profile for that connection type in Microsoft’s connection manager.
