Internet access points
An internet access point is a collection of settings, which
define how the device creates a data connection to the
network. To use e-mail and multimedia services or to
browse web pages, you must first define access points for
these services.
Some or all access points may be preset for your device by
your service provider, and you may not be able to create,
edit, or remove them.
