General information about data connections and
access points
Glossary: Access
point - The point where
your phone connects to
the Internet by way of a
data call or packet data
connection. An access
point can be provided, for
example, by a commercial
Internet service provider
(ISP), service provider for
mobile devices, or network
operator.
To define settings for access points, go to Settings → Connection → Access points .
A data connection is required to connect to an access point. Your phone supports three
kinds of data connections:
• a GSM data call ( ),
• GSM high-speed data call ( ), or
• packet data (GPRS) connection ( ).
There are three different kinds of access points that you can define: MMS access point,
browser access point, and Internet access point (IAP). Check with your service provider
what kind of an access point is needed for the service you wish to access. You need to
set access point settings, if you want to, for example,
• send and receive multimedia messages,
• send and receive e-mail,
• browse pages,
• download Java™ applications,
• use Image upload, or
• use your phone as a modem.

provider.
