Data services such as email, instant messaging, Web browsing, and RSS feeds let you have fun, stay in touch, and stay informed no matter where you go on the Sprint National Network.

Ways of Connecting to the Internet

Your device’s networking capabilities allow you to wirelessly access the Internet or your corporate network through one of the following connections:

Wi-Fi (see “Connecting via Wi-Fi”below)

Data Services (see “Getting Started With Data Services” on page 130)

Note You can also add and set up the following connections:

•VPN: A VPN connection is used to access your corporate network by using an existing Internet connection.

•Proxy: A Proxy connection is used to access the Internet using an existing connection to your corporate or WAP network.

Connecting via Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi provides wireless Internet access over distances of up to 300 feet (100 meters). To use Wi-Fi on your device, you need access to a wireless access point or “hotspot.”

Note The availability and range of your device’s Wi-Fi signal depends on factors such as the number of walls and other objects through which the signal must pass and background interference caused by microwave ovens and other devices that generate RF signals.
