GPRS (GENERAL PACKET RADIO SERVICE)
Your Nokia 6310i phone features GPRS, a new technology that allows
mobile phones to be used for sending and receiving data over the mobile
network. GPRS is a data bearer that enables wireless access to data
networks such as the Internet. The applications that use GPRS are WAP,
SMS messaging and the GPRS dial-up (for example, Internet and e-mail).
Before you can use GPRS technology:
• You need to subscribe to the GPRS service.
For availability and subscription to the GPRS service, contact your
wireless service provider.
• You need to save the GPRS settings for the applications used over
GPRS. This information is also available from your service provider.
Important: GPRS may not be available in all wireless networks.
The establishment and continuation of a GPRS and Internet
connection depends on network availability, service provider
support, and signal strength.
The Service provider’s role
Because WAP pages are designed to be viewed from your phone, your
cellular service provider is also your “mobile Internet service provider.”
It’s likely that your service provider has created a home page and set up
your WAP browser to navigate to this page when you initialize your
phone’s browser. Once at your service provider’s home page, you may find
links to other sites.
• SET UP FOR BROWSING
You should not need to do anything to set up your phone for browsing.
Your service provider usually installs or modifies the appropriate settings
when you subscribe to the feature. Contact your service provider if you have
problems using the browser.
