Your device allows you to access the internet either 
through a wireless network (WLAN/Wi-Fi) or a mobile 
phone that supports Bluetooth wireless technology.
Connectivity settings

searched in the background.
On the 
Idle times
 page, select the time after which the 
internet connection ends automatically if the connection 
is not used. Use 
Packet data idle time
 for packet-switched 
data connections (such as GPRS), 
Data call idle time
 for 
circuit-switched data calls (such as GSM data calls), and 
WLAN idle time
 for connections created through a WLAN 
access point.
Note: Time-based charges may apply to the 
internet connections. Check with your 
service provider, and adjust the idle times 
accordingly.
Note: The network may also have idle timers 
that may cause the internet connection to 
break, regardless of the idle timers of the 
device.
WLAN connection
When you access an application that requires an internet 
connection, the device uses the wireless network 
connections (WLAN/Wi-Fi) you have saved by default. If 
you have not saved any connections, or they are 
unavailable, you are asked to select the connection 
(internet access point) to use. You can save the network 
after selecting it from the list. However, if your network 
name is set as hidden, you must configure the settings 
manually.
To set up a wireless network connection manually, tap 
,

. In 
Control panel
, 
select 
Connectivity
 > 
Connections

setup wizard opens. Select 
Next
