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,

download Java™ applications,

use Image upload, or

browse pages.

See “Data connection indicators” on page 9.

GSM data calls
A GSM data call enables data transmission rates to a maximum of 14.4 kbps.
For availability and subscription to data services, contact your service provider.

High speed data call (High Speed Circuit Switched Data, HSCSD)
For availability and subscription to high-speed data services, please contact your
service provider.

The Settings wizard included in the PC Suite can help you to configure access point
and mailbox settings. You can also copy existing settings, for example, from your
computer to your phone. See the CD-ROM supplied in the sales package.

Sending data in HSCSD mode may drain the phone’s battery faster than normal
voice or data calls, as the phone may send data more frequently to the network.

Packet data (General Packet Radio Service, GPRS)
Minimum settings needed to make a packet data connection

You need to subscribe to the GPRS service. For availability and subscription to
GPRS, contact your service provider.

For more detailed information on fees, contact your service provider. See “Viewing
