Network Connections
Your mobile device needs a working packet data connection and an APN
(Access Point Name) configuration that connects directly to the Internet.
You can verify this by opening a web page (not a wap page) with the
device’s Internet browser. If the page opens, you do not need to
configure the APN.
NOTE!
To provide true Always-On experience the TELKOM Ventus
Mobile application on the mobile device keeps a packet data
connection open to the Internet. The connection is
automatically re-initiated if it is temporarily lost. Please,
consult your operator for actual data costs, both in your home
network and when roaming.
If you cannot connect to the Internet, you can edit the APN settings by
going to
Start Menu >Settings >Connections tab >Connections
icon>Manage existing connections >My Connection
.
