Tip: You can create internet access points in a WLAN
with the WLAN wizard.
To create a new access point, select Access point . The
device asks to check for available connections. After the
search, connections that are already available are displayed
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 edit the settings of an access point, select one of the access
point groups, scroll to an access point, and select Edit . Use
the instructions provided by your service provider to edit the
following:
•
Connection name — Enter a name for the connection.
• Data bearer — Select the data connection type.
Depending on the data connection you select, only certain
setting fields are available. Fill in all fields marked with Must
be defined or with a red *. Other fields can be left empty,
unless your service provider has instructed otherwise.
To use a data connection, your service provider must support
this feature, and if necessary, activate it for your SIM card.
Create access point groups
Select Menu > Ctrl. panel > Settings and Connection >
Destinations .
Some applications allow you to use access point groups to
connect to a network.
To avoid selecting which access point to use every time the
device attempts to connect to a network, you can create a
group that contains various access points, and define the
order in which the access points are used to connect to a
network.
For example, you can add wireless LAN (WLAN) and packet
data access points to an internet access point group and use
the group for browsing the web. If you give the WLAN access
point the higher priority, the device connects to the internet
through a WLAN if available and through a packet data
connection if not.
To create a new access point group, select
Options >
Manage > New destination .
To add access points to an access point group, select the
group and Options > New access point . To copy an existing
access point from another group, select the group, scroll to
an existing access point, and select Options > Organise >
Copy to other dest. .
To change the priority order of access points within a group,
