Tip: You can create internet access points in a
wireless LAN with the WLAN wizard.
To create a new access point, select
New access
point. The device asks to check for available
connections. After the search, connections that are
already available are shown and can be shared by a
new access point. If you skip this step, you are asked
to select a connection method and to define the
settings needed.
To edit the settings of an access point, open one of the
access point groups, select an access point and Edit.
Follow the instructions from your service provider.
Connection name — Enter a name for the
connection.
Data bearer — Select the data connection type.
Depending on the data connection you select, only
certain setting fields are available. Fill in all fields
marked with Must be defined or with a red *. Other
fields can be left empty, unless your service provider
has instructed otherwise.
To use a data connection, your service provider must
support this feature, and if necessary, activate it for
your SIM card.
Create access point groups
Press , and select Tools > Settings >
Connection > Destinations.
Some applications allow you to use access point groups
for network connection.
To avoid selecting a single access point every time the
device makes a network connection, you can create a
group that contains various access points to connect to
that network and define the order in which the access
points are used.
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 WLAN the highest priority, the device connects to
the internet through WLAN if available and through
packet data 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, an existing access point, and Options >
Organise > Copy to other dest..
To change the priority order of access points within a
group, select an access point and Options >
