Connectivity

Your device offers several options to connect to the
internet or to another compatible device or PC.
Data connections and
access points
Your device supports packet data connections (network
service), such as GPRS in the GSM network. When you use
your device in GSM and UMTS networks, multiple data
connections can be active at the same time, and access
points can share a data connection. In the UMTS network,
data connections remain active during voice calls.
You can also use a WLAN data connection. Only one
connection in one wireless LAN can be active at a time, but
several applications can use the same internet access
point.
To establish a data connection, an access point is required.
You can define different kinds of access points, such as the
following:
• MMS access point to send and receive multimedia
messages
• Internet access point (IAP) to send and receive e-mail
and connect to the internet
Check the type of access point you need with your service
provider for the service you want to access. For availability
