Internet connection settings

To configure Internet connection settings, define the

following fields:

General

Preferred access point:

— Choose the access point to connect

to the Internet.

Ask before connecting:

— If you select this, a dialog appears

every time you connect to the Internet, asking you to
confirm the connection or to change the access point.

Data call

Disconnect when idle for:

— Select the time period after

which the data call is ended automatically if the
connection is not used.

Some Internet connections may appear inactive, but they
may still be sending and receiving data in the background.
These connections may delay the start of the inactivity
period specified here, and therefore postpone the closing
of the connection.

The data call settings affect all access points using a data
call and high-speed data call. For more information on
data connections, see “Data connections” on page 29.

GPRS

Disconnect when idle for:

— Select the time period after

which the GPRS connection is set to standby mode, if the
connection is not used.

GPRS connection:

— Select

When available

to keep the GPRS

connection in alert mode and to switch the packet data
transfer on quickly when needed. If you select

When

needed

, the smartphone will use a GPRS connection only

if you start an application or action that needs it. Note
that if there is no GPRS coverage and you have chosen the

When available

option, the smartphone will periodically try

to establish a GPRS connection.

The GPRS settings affect all access points using a GPRS
connection.
