using AOL's TCP/IP connection.

1
From the AOL Sign On screen, click SETUP.
2
Click Expert Setup, then click the Locations tab.
3
Click the Add Location button.
4
Enter a name for this location (example: TCP/IP for GPRS).
5
Click the Add a custom connection option, then click Next.
6
Enter a name for this type of connection in the Add number
(Connection) screen (example: GPRS).

Verify that TCP/IP is the type of connection selected, then click OK.

Connect to AOL

Select the TCP/IP location option on the Sign On screen (example: TCP/IP for GPRS), then click SIGN ON.
AOL should now connect using your wireless service provider's Internet access.

• CONFIGURE YOUR DATA SOFTWARE FOR CIRCUIT SWITCHED DATA (CSD)

Before you can use your phone to send and receive data calls using CSD, you must also configure your data software so that it uses
your phone as the active modem (rather than your existing modem). The following pages are designed to help you configure some
of the more popular applications for CSD calls.

• CREATE DIAL-UP NETWORKING CONNECTION FOR CSD

You may be using Microsoft's Dial-up Networking feature to connect to your Internet service provider, or to make a remote
connection to your corporate network (including corporate e-mail server using Microsoft Outlook, or Lotus cc:Mail).
Rather than altering the existing configurations you use when dialing with your existing modem, consider creating a new
connection exclusively for use with your Nokia phone (as detailed below).
GATHER CONFIGURATION INFORMATION
You need the phone number for your Internet service provider or for your company's remote access server. When testing the new
connection, you also need your user name and password.
