You may receive access point settings in a message from a

service provider. Some or all access points may be preset for

your device by your service provider, and you may not be able

to change, create, edit, or remove them.

Access point

.

2 The device asks you to check for available connections.

After the search, connections that are already available

are shown and can be shared by a new access point. If

you skip this step, you are asked to select a connection

method and to define the settings needed.

To view access points stored in your device, select an access

point group. The different access point groups are the

following:

Internet access points

Multimedia messaging access points

WAP access points

Uncategorized access points

The different access point group types are the following:

Protected access point

Packet data access point

Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) access point

Manage access point groups

To avoid selecting a single access point every time the device

makes a network connection, you can create a group that

contains various access points to connect to that network and

define the order in which the access points are used. For

example, you can add wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) and packet data

(GPRS) access points to an internet access point group, and

use the group for browsing the web. If you give Wi-Fi the

highest priority, the device connects to the internet through

Wi-Fi, if available, and through a GPRS connection if not.
