Settings

Note: ISDN connections are a way to establish a data call between
your phone and your access point. ISDN connections are digital from
end to end and as such offer quicker set-up times and faster data
rates than analog connections. In order to use an ISDN connection,
both your service provider and your Internet service provider must
support it.

Connection security

—Choose whether Transport Layer Security (TLS) is used

for the connection. Follow the instructions from your service provider.

Session mode

—

Permanent

/

Temporary

.

Data call type

(for GSM data and high-speed data only)—

Analog

,

ISDN

v.110

, or

ISDN v.120

defines whether the phone uses an analog or digital

connection. This setting depends on both your GSM service provider and
Internet Service Provider (ISP), because some GSM systems do not support
certain types of ISDN connections. For details, contact your ISP. If ISDN
connections are available, they establish connections more quickly than
analog methods.

Maximum data speed

(for GSM data and high-speed data only)—The

options are

Automatic

/

9600

/

14400

/

19200

/

28800

/

38400

/

43200

,

depending on what you have chosen in

Session mode

and

Data call type

.

This option allows you to limit the maximum connection speed when
high-speed data is used. Higher data rates may cost more, depending
on the system service provider.

Note: The speeds above represent the maximum speed at which
your connection will operate. During the connection, the operating
speed may be less, depending on system conditions.

Note: DNS—Domain Name Service. An Internet service that translates
domain names such as www.nokia.com into IP addresses like
192.100.124.195.

The following settings are shown if you have selected data call and high-
speed data as the connection type:

Use callback

—This option allows a server to call you back once you have

made the initial call, so you have a connection without paying for the call.
Contact your service provider to subscribe to this service.

Note: Charges may apply for certain types of received calls, such
as roaming and high-speed data calls. Contact your GSM service
provider for more information.

Note: The phone expects the callback call to use the same data call
settings that were used in the callback-requesting call. The system
must support this type of call in both directions, to and from
the phone.

Callback type

—The options are

Use server no.

/

Use other no.

Ask your

service provider for the correct setting; it will depend on the service
provider’s configuration.

Callback number

—Key in your phone’s data phone number which the dial

back server uses. Usually, this number is the data call phone number of
your phone.

Use PPP compression

—When set to

Yes

, this option speeds up the data

transfer, if supported by the remote PPP server. If you have problems with
establishing a connection, try setting this to

No

. Contact your service

provider for guidance.

Note: PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol)—a common networking
software protocol that enables any computer with a modem
and a phone line to connect directly to the Internet.
