7.1 Setting up Internet connections
The device's powerful networking capabilities allow you to access the Internet or your
corporate network at work through telephony or wireless connections. Specifically,
you can configure the device to establish a connection via GPRS/EDGE/HSPA,
Dial-up and Wi-Fi, or set up a VPN or network Proxy.
With an active connection on the device, you can browse the Web, download e-mails or
use Windows Live Messenger. Check with your service provider to see if a connection
has already been set up for you and if over-the-air configuration is supported.
If you need to manually set up a connection, it is important that you obtain the
following information from your Internet Service Provider (ISP) or the company whose
intranet you are trying to access:
• User name
• Password
• Access point name (required for GPRS connection)
• Domain name (required for accessing a corporate network or an intranet)
