Packet data (GPRS) settings
Select Menu > Tools > Settings > Connection > Packet data.
Your device supports packet data connections, such as GPRS in the GSM network. When you are using your device in GSM and UMTS networks, it is possible to have multiple data connections active at the same time; access points can share a data connection, and data connections remain active, for example, during voice calls. See "Connection manager," p. 100.
To define the packet data settings, select Packet data connection and select When available to register the device to the packet data network when you switch the device on in a supported network, or When needed to establish a packet data connection only when an application or action requires it. Select Access point and enter the access point name provided by your service provider to use the device as a packet data modem to your computer.
