Data connections and access points

Your device supports packet data connections (network service), such as GPRS in the GSM network. When you use your device in GSM and UMTS networks, multiple data connections can be active at the same time, and access points can share a data connection. In the UMTS network, data connections remain active during voice calls.

To establish a data connection, an access point is required. You can define different kinds of access points:

MMS access point to send and receive multimedia messages

Access point for the Web application to view WML or XHTML pages

Internet access point (IAP) to send and receive e-mail and connect to the Internet

Check the type of access point you need with your service provider for the service you want to access. For availability and subscription to packet data connection services, contact your network operator or service provider.
