Some Internet connections may appear inactive, but they may still be sending and receiving data in the background. These
connections may postpone the closing of the connection.
Select the Other page, and define the settings.
• Ask before connecting—If you select Yes, a dialog appears every time you connect to the Internet, asking you to confirm
the connection or to change the Internet access point.
• GPRS operating mode—Select Always on to keep the GPRS connection in alert mode and to switch the packet data
transfer on quickly when needed. If you select On when needed, the device uses a GPRS connection only when you start an
application or action that needs it. Note that if there is no GPRS coverage and you selected Always on, the device will
periodically try to establish a GPRS connection.
To change the priority of Internet access points, select Connections → Internet setup. Press Priority, select an Internet access
point, and press Move up or Move down. When you establish a data connection, the access points are searched for in the
order you have specified.
Selecting an Internet access point
When you establish an Internet connection, you are asked to select the Internet access point you want to use for that
connection. In the Network connection dialog, select an Internet access point from the list, and press Connect. Before
connecting, you can filter the list of access points according to the network type. To view all Internet access points, select All
networks. To view Internet access points that are currently available, press Show available. For example, if you are using the
Offline profile, no GPRS or GSM Internet access points are shown in the list.
Tip: The Network connection dialog opens only if you have selected Yes in the Ask before connecting field in the
general Internet access point settings. To check the status of the setting, select Desk → Tools → Control panel, and
Connections → Internet setup → Other page.
Tip: If you have problems in establishing a wireless LAN connection, try selecting Not allowed for the Simultaneous
Bluetooth usage option: go to Desk → Tools → Control panel → Connections → Wireless LAN → Settings. This
prevents simultaneous Bluetooth technology and wireless LAN use, and also turns off the wireless LAN power
saving in your device. Note that the power consumption increases when a wireless LAN connection is used if you
select Not allowed.
