Getting started with e-mail and WAP
141
A WAP profile defines a service provider and gateway that should be
used when making a connection. A WAP service may require the use
of a specific combination of service provider and gateway to make a
successful connection. You can create different WAP profiles for
different connections, and thus simplify the process of accessing
WAP services.
If you save a location in your bookmarks the WAP profile is also
saved. This means that when you select a location to visit from your
bookmarks, your phone will automatically access the location via the
correct service provider and gateway.
Likewise if you select a location to return to from your History list,
the profile that was originally used to access the page will be used
again automatically.
Note:
When you use Open location on the WAP Services desktop,
the default WAP profile will be used. Whereas, if you follow a link on
a WAP page to a new location, the current profile will be used.
The easiest way to set up the R380s is automatically, through your
service provider. Check your service providers web site for
information or telephone/e-mail their support desk and ask about
automatic remote configuration.
If remote configuration is possible, tell your service provider that you
require WAP settings, they will send you an auto configuration
message by SMS. Confirm that your GSM subscription is data
enabled at the same time.
To automatically set up WAP:
1.
The service provider will send a special SMS message to your
R380s.
2.
When the auto configuration message
appears in the R380s
inbox, select it.
3.
A brief text and operator message appears on the display with the
message
Configure now?
. To initiate the auto configuration, select
Yes
. To perform the auto configuration later, select
No
.
4.
Access a WAP site to test the new settings.
Warning!
Never accept remote configuration messages if you are
not expecting them or are unsure where they have come from.
