provider, and you may not be able to change, create,
edit, or remove them.

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

settings needed.

the access point groups, and select an access point.

Some applications allow you to use access point
groups for network connections.
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
