Packet Data - Nokia 6085 User Manual

Packet data

General packet radio service
(GPRS) is a network service that
allows mobile phones to send and
receive data over an Internet
protocol (IP) based network. GPRS
is a data bearer that enables
wireless access to data networks
such as the Internet.
Enhanced GPRS (EGPRS) is similar
to GPRS but enables faster
connections. For more information
on availability of EGPRS or GPRS
and data transfer speed, contact
your network operator or service
provider.
The applications that may use
EGPRS or GPRS are MMS, video
streaming, browsing sessions,
e-mail, remote SyncML, Java
application downloading, and the
PC dial-up.
When you have selected GPRS as a
data bearer, the phone uses EGPRS
instead of GPRS, if this is available
in the network. You cannot select
between EGPRS and GPRS, but for
some applications you may be able
to select GPRS or GSM data
(circuit switched data, CSD).
