Access points

Select Menu > Tools > Settings > Connection > Access points.

An internet access point is a collection of settings, which define how the device creates a data connection to the network. To use e-mail and multimedia services or to browse web pages, you must first define access points for these services.

Some or all access points may be preset for your device by your service provider, and you may not be able to create, edit, or remove them.

To create a new access point, select Options > New access point or select an existing access point from the list and then Options > Duplicate access point to use the access point as a basis for the new one.

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. 121.
