Network settings
The Network settings feature enables you to indicate whether
the network used when roaming(outside your home area) is
selected automatically, manually or preferably.
Note
You can select a network other than your home network only if
it has a valid roaming agreement with your home network.
Automatic
Use this to set the phone to automatically search for and select one
of the cellular networks available in your area.
The phone will default back to Automatic if it is switched off.
Manual
If you want to select the desired network manually from a list of
network. If the connection to the manually selected network is lost,
the phone will sound an error tone and ask you to select a network
again. The selected network must have a roaming agreement with
your home network, that is, the operator whose SIM card is in your
phone. The phone will let you select another network if the phone
fails to access the selected network. If you switch off the phone,
the phone will be reset to Automatic.
Preferred
You can set a list of preferred networks the handset should attempt
to register with first, before attempting to register to any other
networks. This list is created from the handset's predefined list of
known networks.
