Packet communication
Data communication (packet communication) can be performed by connecting to
the Internet.
Packet communication charges are based on the amount of data sent and received,
which makes it suitable for high-speed exchange of comparatively small amounts
of data as in sending and receiving mail. No communication charges are required
when no data are exchanged even if you are connected to the network. Therefore,
sending/receiving data as needed while remaining connected to the network is
possible.
High-speed packet communication can be performed at a reception speed of up to
7.2 Mbps and a transmission speed of up to 384 Kbps by using an access point that
supports FOMA packet communication such as mopera U, DOCOMO's Internet
connection service. It offers by the best effort method that actual transmission
speed varies by the communication environment or the severity of congestion.
Communications of large amount of data such as browsing websites containing
many images or downloading data may incur high charges.
*
When connecting to an access point out of the FOMA HIGH-SPEED Area or an access point
not compatible with HIGH-SPEED, or when using devices not compatible with HIGH-SPEED
such as musea or sigmarion III PDA by DOCOMO, communication speed may be reduced.
* Up to 7.2 Mbps at reception and 384 Kbps at transmission are the maximum speed based on
the technical specifications, and do not represent the actual communication speeds. Actual
communication speed varies depending on network congestion or communication
environment.
◆ 64K data communication
64K data communication can be performed by connecting to the Internet.
Since communication charges are based on the duration of the connection to the
network regardless of the volume of data, it is suitable for sending and receiving
relatively large amounts of data as in downloading multi-media contents.
You can connect to access points that support FOMA 64K data communication such
as mopera U, DOCOMO's Internet connection service, or ISDN synchronous 64K
access points.
Be careful that a high cost is charged for long-time communications.
