Connection settings and access points

Contact your service provider to find out what kind of access point is needed for the service you wish to access. You need to set access point settings if you want to, for example:

• Send and receive multimedia messages
• Send and receive e-mail
• Browse pages
• Download Java^TM applications
• Use Image upload
• Use your phone as a modem

There are three different kinds of access points that you can define:

• MMS access point
• Browser access point
• Internet access point (IAP)

To define the settings for access points, go to Settings > Connection settings > Access points.

A data connection is required to connect to an access point. Your phone supports three kinds of data connections:

• GSM data call
• GSM high-speed data call
• Packet data (GPRS) connection

Check the Access points section to learn more about access point settings.

GSM data calls

A GSM data call enables data transmission rates up to a maximum of 14.4 Kbps. For availability and subscription to data services, contact your network operator or service provider.

Minimum settings needed to make a data call

To insert a set of basic GSM data call settings, go to Settings > Connection settings > Access points and select Options > New access point. Fill in the following:

• Data bearer: GSM data
• Dial-up number
• Session mode: Permanent
• Data call type: Analog
• Maximum data speed: Automatic

High-speed data call (High-Speed Circuit Switched Data, HSCSD)

High-speed data enables data transmission rates up to a maximum of 43.2 Kbps, which is three times faster than the standard data rates of the GSM network.

For availability and subscription to high-speed data services, please contact your network operator or service provider.

Packet data (General Packet Radio Service, GPRS)

Packet data, or General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), uses packet data technology in which information is sent in short bursts of data over the mobile network. The benefit of sending data in packets is that the network is occupied only when sending or receiving data. Because GPRS uses the network efficiently, it allows for quick data connection set up and fast data transmission speeds.

Minimum settings needed to make a packet data connection

• You need to subscribe to the GPRS service. For availability and subscription to GPRS, contact your network operator or service provider.
• Go to Settings > Connection settings > Access points and select Options > New access point. Fill in the following:
• Data bearer: GPRS
• Access point name: enter the name given to you by your service provider
