Setting connection preferences
The Network Preferences screen enables you to use a preconfigured connection
type for each service you select or create. You can also choose to edit the settings of
a preconfigured connection type or to create a new connection type. Use the
Connection Preferences screen either to perform either of these tasks.
The list of preconfigured connection types varies according to the software that has
been installed on your handheld. Also, the steps necessary for editing a connection
type vary according to the type. For example, if a modem connection appears on
the list, you need only to specify the phone setup (and connection type, if required)
to complete the configuration.
The following are examples of the custom connection types you can create:
