Access points

Select Tools Settings
> >
An access point is where your device connects to the network by way of a data connection. To use e-mail and multimedia services
or to browse web pages, you must first define access points for these services.
Some or all access points may be preset for your device by your service provider, and you may not be able to create, edit, or
remove them.
To create a new access point, select
Options Duplicate access point
>

Packet data settings

Select Tools Settings
> >
Your device supports packet data connections, such as GPRS in the GSM network. When you are using your device in GSM and
UMTS networks, it is possible to have multiple data connections active at the same time; access points can share a data
connection, and data connections remain active, for example, during voice calls.
To define the packet data settings, select
data network when you switch the device on in a supported network, or
only when an application or action requires it. Select
provider to use the device as a packet data modem to your computer.
These settings affect all access points for packet data connections.

WEP security settings

Select Access points Options

In the access point settings, select
The wired equivalent privacy (WEP) encryption method encrypts data before it is transmitted. Access to the network is denied
to users who do not have the required WEP keys. When the WEP security mode is in use, and your device receives a data packet
not encrypted with the WEP keys, the data is discarded.
In an Ad-hoc network, all devices must use the same WEP key.
