Introduction
This document is a support guide for the configuration of
Internet settings needed to use the Nokia E50 for data
connections.
To access the Internet (in order to use WWW or mail), the
following conditions must exist:
• The cellular network (EGSM 850/900/1800/1900) you
use must support data calls.
• The data service (also the high-speed HSCSD service if
used) must be activated for your SIM card.
• You must have obtained an Internet access point (IAP)
from an Internet service provider.
• Proper Internet settings must have been configured in
your device.
For information about the correct settings, contact your
Internet service provider or system administrator. The
service provider may be able to configure the access point
for you using a special SMS message or WWW page, which
sets up all the necessary Internet access settings. Please
contact your Internet service provider (ISP) for details.
The necessary settings for Internet configuration are
provided by your Internet Service Provider. If your Internet
settings are incomplete or incorrect, please contact your
service provider. Depending on your ISP or network
operator, you may not need to fill in all of the settings.
When you insert a SIM card, the device will read the
necessary GPRS, MMS, and SMSC settings from the SIM
card if they are available, and no manual configuration is
necessary. Note that this may not work with all operators
and SIM cards.
