Connecting To The Internet Or Your Network; Creating A Gprs Connection - Samsung SMART DEVICE SGH-I617 User Manual

Connecting to the Internet or your network

You can use the Connections settings to create dial-up, Virtual Private Network
(VPN), GPRS, and proxy connections so that you can connect to the Internet or your
corporate network. By using a data connection, you can browse the Internet,
download e-mails, chat by using Windows Live Messenger, or synchronize remotely
with an Exchange Server. Check with your service provider to see if a data
connection has already been set up for you, and if over-the-air configuration is
supported.

Creating a GPRS connection

If you subscribe to General Packet Radio Services (GPRS), you can set up a GPRS
connection to gain access to your corporate network or the Internet. This is faster
than a dial-up connection.
You can also use your phone as a GPRS modem for a desktop computer.
