User's Manual

• Show terminal window—If you select Yes, once a connection is established, you see the execution of the script.
Other page
Define the following:
• Use callback—Select Yes if you have a service that dials back to your device when you establish an Internet connection.
• Callback type—Ask your Internet service provider for the correct setting. Server number refers to the standard Microsoft
callback, and Server number (IETF) refers to a callback approved by the Internet Engineering Task Force. Select Number to
use a number that you define in the Callback number field.
• Callback number—Enter the data call phone number of your device, which the callback server uses.
• Allow plain text login—Select No, if you never want to send your password as plain text without encryption. Note that
this option only affects PPP connections; e-mail and Web passwords are not encrypted. Some Internet service providers
require that this option is set to Yes.
• Use PPP compression—Select Yes to speed up the data transfer, if it is supported by the remote PPP server. If you have
problems establishing a connection, select No.
Setting up an Internet access point for a wireless LAN
Your device has a predefined Internet access point for a wireless LAN, but you can create new Internet access points yourself.
1. Select Connections → Internet setup.
2. Press New. You can use an existing Internet access point as a basis for the new one: after you have pressed New, press Yes.
Select the access point from the list, and press OK.
3. Define the settings.
• Internet settings name—Enter a descriptive name for the Internet access point.
• Internet settings type—Select Wireless LAN as the connection type.
• Network ID—Select the network ID according to the destination network you want to access with the Internet access
point. You can rename and create new network IDs. Using the correct network ID ensures that the data traffic is routed
directly to the desired destination network. Especially VPN (virtual private network) software may restrict data traffic
for a certain destination network. Network IDs can be used to filter Internet access points when establishing an
Internet connection.
• Network mode—If you select the Infrastructure mode, devices can communicate with each other and with wired LAN
devices through a wireless LAN access point. If you select the Ad hoc mode, devices can send and receive data directly
with each other. No wireless LAN access point is needed.
• Network name—Type the network name (SSID - service set identifier) as defined by the system administrator, or press
Change, and select one from the list. In the ad hoc mode, the users themselves name the wireless LAN. If you do not
specify the network name here, you are asked to select a network when you establish a wireless LAN connection.
• Security mode—You must select the same security mode that is used in the wireless LAN access point. If you select
WEP (wired equivalent privacy) or WPA (Wi-Fi protected access), you must configure additional settings, too.
4. After defining the settings, press Advanced to define advanced settings, if necessary. Otherwise, press Finish or Done to
exit the setup wizard.
Configuring advanced Internet access point settings
Press Advanced when you have finished setting up the basic Internet access point settings.
The pages and options available depend on the settings you have chosen. Ask your system administrator for the correct
values.
IP configuration page
Note that the two protocols (IPv4 and IPv6) require slightly different settings.
• Auto retrieve IP—If you select Yes, the IP address is obtained automatically from the server. This setting is sometimes also
called dynamic IP address. If you select No, you must specify the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway in the fields
below.
• Auto retrieve DNS—If you select Yes for the IPv4 protocol, or DHCP for the IPv6 protocol, the primary and secondary DNS
(domain name server) addresses are obtained automatically from the server. DNS is an Internet service that translates
domain names such as www.nokia.com into IPv4 addresses such as 192.100.124.195, or IPv6 addresses like 3ffe:2650:
a640:1c2:341:c39:14. If you select No for the IPv4 protocol, or Manual for the IPv6 protocol, you must specify the IP
addresses for the primary and secondary DNS servers.
Proxies page
You may want to use a proxy to quicken access to the Internet. Note also that some Internet service providers require the
use of Web proxies. Contact your Internet service provider to determine proxy details.
If you have made an Internet connection to your company’s intranet, and are unable to retrieve Web pages from the general
Internet, you may need to setup a proxy server to retrieve Web pages outside your company’s intranet.
