Configuring Internet connection settings

These settings affect all Internet connections.
To configure common Internet connection settings, select

Connections

>

Internet setup

. Select the

Idle

page, and define the

time period after which the connection ends automatically and returns to standby mode if not used. You can specify a different

time for each connection type, but the setting affects all Internet access points using that connection type.
Some Internet connections may appear inactive, but they may still be sending and receiving data in the background. These

connections may postpone the closing of the connection.
Select the

Other

page, and define the settings.

Ask before connecting

— If you select

, a dialog appears every time you connect to the Internet, asking you to confirm

the connection or to change the Internet access point.

GPRS operating mode

— Select

to keep the GPRS connection in alert mode and to switch the packet data transfer

on quickly when needed. If you select

Always on

, the device will periodically try to

establish a GPRS connection.

To change the priority of Internet access points, select
