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:

MMS access point to send and receive multimedia

messages

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.
