Scroll to VPN and press the Right Arrow key.

(Optional) If you want your phone to connect to the VPN every time it starts up (for
example, if you will always be using it at an offsite location), press the Down Arrow
key to the Connect on Bootup field, and press the Right Arrow key to check this
field.
