Access points

An internet access point is a collection of settings,
which define how the device creates a data connection
to the network. To use e-mail and multimedia services
or to browse web pages, you must first define access
points for these services.
Some or all access points may be preset for your device
by your service provider, and you may not be able to
create, edit, or remove them.
To create a new access point, select

access point
or select an existing access point from the
list and then

the access point as a basis for the new one.

Packet data

Your device supports packet data connections, such as
GPRS in the GSM network. When you are using your
device in GSM and UMTS networks, it is possible to have
multiple data connections active at the same time;
access points can share a data connection, and data
connections remain active, for example, during voice
calls.
See "Connection manager", p. 121.
To define the packet data settings, select
Packet data
connection

establish a packet data connection only when an
application or action requires it. Select

service provider to use the device as a packet data
modem to your computer. To use a high-speed data
