86 Getting Connected

6.1 Connecting to the Internet

Your device’s powerful networking capabilities allow you to access the Internet or your corporate network at work through wireless and conventional connections. Specifically, you can configure your phone to establish a connection via Dial-up, GPRS, Bluetooth, Virtual Private Network (VPN) or Proxy.

With an active connection on your phone, you can browse the Web, download e-mails or chat using MSN Messenger. Check with your service provider to see if a connection has already been set up for you and if over- the-air configuration is supported.

In times when you are not within the coverage of a wireless network, you can either use GPRS or phone dial-up to connect your device to the Internet or your corporate network. Your device has two groups of connection settings: My ISP (Internet Service Provider) and My Work Network. The My ISP settings are used to connect to the Internet, while My Work Network settings can be used to connect to any private, corporate network.

To set up a GPRS connection to the Internet

GPRS is a non-voice value-added service that allows information to be sent and received across a mobile telephone network. You can use GPRS to connect to the Internet or to send and receive MMS on your device. You will be billed per KB (Kilobyte) by your wireless service provider when you are sending or receiving information via GPRS.

If GPRS settings are not preset on your device, obtain the Access point name from your wireless service provider. Also, check with your wireless service provider if a user name and password are required.
