Note: The Nokia 6620 phone is capable of using an EGPRS (enhanced GPRS)
network connection. EGPRS is also known as EDGE (enhanced data rates
for global evolution) and is similar to GPRS, but the connection is faster.
For more information on availability of EGPRS and data transfer speed,
contact your service provider.
The applications that may use GPRS are multimedia, text messaging, streaming,
browsing sessions, e-mail, data sync, Java™ application downloading, and the PC
dial-up (such as Internet and e-mail).
To use GPRS technology, you must first do the following:
• Contact your service provider for availability and subscription to the GPRS service.
• Save the GPRS settings for each of the applications used over GPRS.
For information on pricing, contact your service provider.
When you select GPRS as a data bearer, the phone uses EGPRS instead of GPRS, if
this is available in the network. You cannot select between EGPRS and GPRS, but
for some applications you may be able to select either GPRS or GSM data (CSD).
To define GPRS connection settings, select Menu > Settings > Connection >
GPRS, and the following:
GPRS connection—If you select When available and you are in a network that
supports packet data, the phone registers to the GPRS network. Also, starting an
active packet data connection, for example, to send and receive e-mail, is quicker.
If you select When needed, the phone will use a packet data connection only if
you start an application or action that needs it. The GPRS connection can be closed
after it is not used by any application.
If there is no GPRS coverage and you have chosen When available, the phone will
periodically try to establish a packet data connection.
Access point—The access point name is needed when you want to use your phone
as a packet data modem to your computer. See "Use your phone as a modem" on
page 102.
Data call
Online time—This setting affects all access points using a data call. If there are no
actions, the data call is dropped automatically after a time-out period. Select User
defined (in which case you enter a time) or Unlimited.

messages, this screen will be empty. To delete a message from this screen, press the
Clear key.
