Some applications allow you to use access point groups to
connect to a network.
To avoid selecting which access point to use every time the
device attempts to connect to a network, you can create a
group that contains various access points, and define the
order in which the access points are used to connect to a
network.
For example, you can add wireless LAN (WLAN) and packet
data access points to an internet access point group and use
the group for browsing the web. If you give the WLAN access
point the higher priority, the device connects to the internet
through a WLAN if available and through a packet data
connection if not.
