8.2 Connecting to the Internet
Your phone’s powerful networking capabilities allow you to access the Internet or your corporate network at
work through wireless and conventional connections. Specifically, you can configure your phone to establish
a connection via Dial-up, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Virtual Private Network (VPN), or Proxy.
If you need to manually set up a connection, it is important that you obtain the following information from
your Internet Service Provider (ISP) or the company whose intranet you are trying to access:
• ISP server phone number
• User name
• Password
• Domain name (required for accessing a corporate network or an intranet)
Set up a Dial-up connection
When you use your phone to dial up to your ISP and connect to the Internet or to your corporate network, you
will be billed by the number of minutes that you use.
However, there are some high speed and high performance data connection services (such as 1xRTT and
1xEVDO) available on your phone. While 1xRTT (1 times Radio Transmission Technology) is a third-generation
data service (equivalent to GPRS), 1xEVDO (1 times Evolution Data Optimized) is another high speed wireless
broadband service (equivalent to UMTS) available on your phone for quick Internet access and Direct Push to
work. For more information on how to avail these services, contact your network service provider.
