Other Networks

This chapter describes how you select a different network when you are out of range of your home service provider’s network.

Selecting a Network

When you turn on the phone, it selects its home net- work. If this is not within range, you might not be able to get any reception or, if you are abroad, you can choose a different network, provided your service pro- vider has an agreement allowing you to use the net- work. This is called roaming.

When you select the Networks menu, the phone auto- matically searches for all networks present in the area you are in. Each network that is found, has a status in- dication telling you whether the network is available or forbidden.

See the following list for a description of the status in- dication:
