Select Menu > Ctrl. panel > Settings and Connection >

Some applications allow you to use access point groups to
connect to a network.
To avoid selecting which access point to use every time
the device attempts to connect to a network, you can
create a group that contains various access points, and
define the order in which the access points are used to
connect to a network.
For example, you can add wireless LAN (WLAN) and packet
data access points to an internet access point group and
use the group for browsing the web. If you give the WLAN
access point the higher priority, the device connects to the
internet through a WLAN if available and through a packet
data connection if not.
To create a new access point group, select Options >
Manage > New destination.
To add access points to an access point group, select the
group and Options > New access point. To copy an
existing access point from another group, select the
group, scroll to an existing access point, and select

To change the priority order of access points within a
group, scroll to an access point, and select Options >
Organise > Change priority.
