Select > Connections > Bluetooth.

If you want a pop-up message to remind you that a connection has been enabled or disabled, select Option and check or uncheck Remind.

Wireless standard definitions

GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) is part of the GSM standard and delivers "always-on" wireless packet data services to GSM customers. GPRS can provide packet data speeds of up to 115 kb/s. Make sure that your cellular service provider offers this service and that a SIM card has been installed in the device. The GPRS channel can be activated alongside the Bluetooth channel, but not the WiFi channel, for Internet connection.

Wireless Fidelity is also commonly known as WiFi, which is based on the 802.11_ protocol. An 802.11b/g access point or router is required to access the WiFi channel on your SX66 phone. The WiFi channel can be activated alongside the Bluetooth channel, but not the GPRS channel, for Internet connection.

Bluetooth is a specification that enables your device to wirelessly connect with other short-range devices such as notebook computers, handhelds, printers, digital cameras, or headsets. This allows any device, even those unknown to your device, to be connected to your Pocket PC Phone. The Bluetooth channel can be activated alongside either the GPRS or WiFi channel. You can also use this channel to access the Internet with a Bluetooth-en- abled access point.
