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.
