Session initiation protocol (SIP)

settings

Select Menu > Control panel > Settings and

Connection > SIP settings.

The session initiation protocol (SIP) is used for creating,

modifying, and terminating certain types of communication

sessions with one or more participants (network service).

Typical communication sessions are video sharing and net

calls. SIP profiles include settings for these sessions. The SIP

profile used by default for a communication session is

underlined.

To create a SIP profile, select Options > New SIP profile >

Use default profile or Use existing profile.

To select the SIP profile you want to use by default for

communication sessions, select Options > Default profile.

Packet data (GPRS) settings

Select Menu > Control panel > Settings and

Connection > Packet data.

Your device supports packet data connections, such as GPRS

in the GSM network. When you are using your device in GSM

and UMTS networks, it is possible to have multiple data

connections active at the same time; access points can share

a data connection, and data connections remain active, for

example, during voice calls.

To define the packet data settings, select Packet data

connection and When available to register the device to

the packet data network when you switch the device on in a

supported network, or When needed to register the device

to a packet data network only when an application or action

attempts to establish a packet data connection. This setting

affects all access points for packet data connections. To use

the device as a packet data modem for your computer, select

Access point, and enter the access point name provided by

your service provider. To use a high-speed data connection,

select High speed packet access > Enabled.

WLAN settings

Select Menu > Control panel > Settings and

Connection > Wireless LAN.

To have an indicator displayed when there is a wireless LAN

(WLAN) available in your current location, select Show WLAN

availability > Yes.

To select the interval for your device to scan for available

WLANs, and to update the indicator, select Scan for

networks. This setting is not available unless you select

Show WLAN availability > Yes.

To set the device to test the internet capability of the selected

WLAN automatically, to ask for permission every time, or to

never perform the connectivity test, select Internet

connectivity test > Run automatically, Ask every time,

or Never run. If you select Run automatically or allow the

test to be performed when the device asks for it, and the

connectivity test is performed successfully, the access point

is saved to internet destinations.

To check the unique media access control (MAC) address that

identifies your device, enter *#62209526# in the home

screen. The MAC address is displayed.

Advanced WLAN settings

Select Options > Advanced settings. The advanced WLAN

settings are normally defined automatically, and changing

them is not recommended.

To edit the settings manually, select Automatic

configuration > Disabledand define the following:

• Long retry limit — Enter the maximum number of

transmission attempts if the device does not receive a

receiving acknowledgement signal from the network.

• Short retry limit — Enter the maximum number of

transmission attempts if the device does not receive a

clear-to-send signal from the network.

• RTS threshold — Select the data packet size at which the

WLAN access point device issues a request to send before

sending the packet.

• TX power level — Select the power level of your device

when sending data.

• Radio measurements — Enable or disable the radio

measurements.

• Power saving — Select whether to use the WLAN power

saving mechanism to save the power in the device battery.

Using the power saving mechanism enhances the battery

performance but may weaken WLAN interoperability.

To restore all settings to their original values, select

Options > Restore defaults.

WLAN security settings

Select Menu > Control panel > Settings and

To enter the settings for the selected security mode, select

WLAN security settings.

WEP security settings

Select WEP as the WLAN security mode.

The wired equivalent privacy (WEP) encryption method

encrypts data before it is transmitted. Access to the network

is denied to users who do not have the required WEP keys.

When the WEP security mode is in use, and your device

receives a data packet not encrypted with the WEP keys, the

data is discarded.

In an ad-hoc network, all devices must use the same WEP key.

Select WLAN security settings and from the following:

• WEP key in use — Select the desired WEP key.

• Authentication type — Select Open or Shared.

• WEP key settings — Edit the settings for the WEP key.

WEP key settings

Network.

To select the network mode, select Network mode and Dual

mode, UMTS, or GSM. In dual mode, the device switches

automatically between networks.

Tip: Selecting UMTS enables faster data transfer, but

may increase the demand on battery power and reduce

the battery life. In regions close to both GSM and UMTS

networks, selecting Dual mode may cause constant

jumping between the two networks, which also

increases the demand on battery power.

To select the operator, select Operator selection and

Manual to select from available networks, or Automatic to

set the device to select the network automatically.

To set the device to indicate when it is used in a microcellular

network (MCN), select Cell info display > On.

Access points

Create a new access point

Select Menu > Control panel > Settings and

Connection > Destinations.

You may receive access point settings in a message from a

service provider. Some or all access points may be preset for

your device by your service provider, and you may not be able

to change, create, edit, or remove them.

When you select one of the access point groups ( , , ,

, ), you can see the access point types:

indicates a protected access point

indicates a packet data access point

indicates a wireless LAN (WLAN) access point

Create access point groups

Select Menu > Control panel > Settings and

Connection > Destinations.

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.

To create a new access point group, select Options >

Manage > New destination.

To add access points to an access point group, select the

group and Options > New access point. To copy an existing

access point from another group, select the group, scroll to

an existing access point, and select Options > Organize >

Copy to other dest..

To change the priority order of access points within a group,

scroll to an access point and Options > Organize > Change

priority.
