10. Connectivity
Your device offers several options to connect to the Internet, a corporate intranet, or to another device or PC. Your device supports
a wired solution with a USB (Universal Serial Bus) cable connection for Nokia PC Suite. Your device also allows you to communicate
using push to talk, instant messaging (chat), and modem-based connections.
Internet access points
An access point is where your device connects to a network. To use e-mail and multimedia services or to connect to the Internet
and browse web pages, you must first define Internet access points for these services. You may need to set up several Internet
access points, depending on the sites you want to access. For example, browsing the Web may require one access point, and
accessing your company intranet may require another. To connect to the Internet over GPRS, your device may have predefined,
default Internet access point settings.
When you switch on your device for the first time, the access points may be configured automatically based on the service
provider information in your SIM card. You can also receive the access points settings in a message from your service provider.
This might reduce the number of settings you need to enter yourself.
The available options may vary. Some or all access points may be preset for your device by your service provider. You may not
be able to add, edit, or delete access points.
Contact your service provider and e-mail service provider for more information on access points and their settings.
See "Connection settings," p. 78.
