Data connections and access points
Your device supports packet data
connections (network service), such as
GPRS in the GSM network. When you use
your device in GSM and UMTS networks,
multiple data connections can be active
at the same time, and access points can
share a data connection. In the UMTS
network, data connections remain
active during voice calls.
You can also use a WLAN data
connection. Only one connection in one
wireless LAN can be active at a time, but
several applications can use the same
internet access point.
To establish a data connection, an
access point is required. You can define
different kinds of access points, such as
the following:

•
Internet access point (IAP) to send
and receive e-mail and connect to
the internet
Check the type of access point you need
with your service provider for the
service you want to access. For
availability and subscription to packet
data connection services, contact your
service provider.
