• Login script — Enter the login script. This setting is available only if you have selected Use login script > Yes.
• Modem initialization — Enter a command string for the connection setup, if required by your service provider.
Set up an Internet access point for packet data (GPRS)
1. Select Menu > Settings > Config. > Connection > Access points.
2. Select Options > New access point. To use an existing access point as a basis for the new one, select Use existing settings. To
start with an empty access point, select Use default settings.
3. Define the following settings.
• Connection name — Enter a descriptive name for the connection.
• Data bearer — Select Packet data.
• Access point name — Enter the name for the access point. The name is usually provided by your service provider or network
operator.
• User name — Enter your user name if required by the service provider. User names are often case-sensitive and provided
by your service provider.
• Prompt password — Select Yes to enter your password each time you log into a server or No to save the password in your
device memory and automate the login.
• Password — Enter your password if required by the service provider. The password is often case-sensitive provided by
the service provider.
• Authentication — Select Secure to always send your password encrypted or Normal to send your password encrypted
when possible.
• Homepage — Enter the Web address of the page you want to display as a home page when you use this access point.
4. After defining the settings, select Options > Advanced config. to define the advanced settings or Back to save the settings

Advanced Internet access point settings for packet data (GPRS)
After setting up a basic Internet access point for packet data (GPRS), select Options > Advanced config., and define the following
advanced settings:
• Network type — Select IPv4 or IPv6 as the Internet protocol type. The Internet protocol defines how data is transferred to
and from your device.
• Phone IP address — Enter the IP address of your device. Select Automatic to have the network provide the device IP address.
This setting is shown only if you select Network type > IPv4.
• DNS address — Enter the IP addresses of the Primary DNS address and Secondary DNS addr. if required by your service provider
or network operator. Otherwise, the name server addresses are provided automatically.
• Proxy serv. address — Enter the address of the proxy server. Proxy servers are intermediate servers between a browsing
service and its users, which are used by some service providers. These servers may provide additional security and speed up
access to the service.
Data connections
This device supports packet data (GPRS), high-speed data calls (HSCSD), and GSM data calls.
Packet data
GPRS (general packet radio service) enables wireless access for mobile phones to data networks (network service). GPRS uses
packet data technology where information is sent in short bursts of data over the mobile network. The benefit of sending data
in packets is that the network is occupied only when sending or receiving data. As GPRS uses the network efficiently, it allows
for quick data connection setup and fast data transmission speeds.
You must subscribe to the GPRS service. For availability and subscription to GPRS, contact your network operator or service
provider.
Enhanced GPRS (EGPRS) is similar to GPRS, but it enables faster connection. For more information on the availability of EGPRS
and data transfer speed, contact your network operator or service provider. Note that when you have selected GPRS as a data
bearer, the device uses EGPRS instead of GPRS if this is available in the network.
During a voice call, you cannot establish a GPRS connection, and any existing GPRS connection is put on hold unless the network
supports dual transfer mode.
High-speed data calls
HSCSD (high-speed circuit switched data) enables data transmission rates up to 43.2 kb/s, which is four times faster than standard
data rates of the GSM network. HSCSD is comparable to the speed of many computer modems that communicate with fixed
telephone networks.
For availability and subscription to high-speed data services, contact your network operator or service provider.
