Configuring Internet connection settings
These settings affect all Internet connections.
To configure common Internet connection settings, select
Connections
>
Internet setup
. Select the
Idle
page, and define the
time period after which the connection ends automatically and returns to standby mode if not used. You can specify a different
time for each connection type, but the setting affects all Internet access points using that connection type.
Some Internet connections may appear inactive, but they may still be sending and receiving data in the background. These
connections may postpone the closing of the connection.
Select the
Other
page, and define the settings.
•
Ask before connecting
— If you select
Yes
, a dialog appears every time you connect to the Internet, asking you to confirm
the connection or to change the Internet access point.
•
GPRS operating mode
— Select
Always on
to keep the GPRS connection in alert mode and to switch the packet data transfer
on quickly when needed. If you select
On when needed
, the device uses a GPRS connection only when you start an application
or action that needs it. Note that if there is no GPRS coverage and you selected
Always on
, the device will periodically try to
establish a GPRS connection.
To change the priority of Internet access points, select
Connections
>
Internet setup
. Press
Priority
, select an Internet access
point, and press
Move up
or
Move down
. When you establish a data connection, the access points are searched for in the order
you have specified.
