Wwan Data Configuration - Motorola 7545MBW User Manual

WWAN Data Configuration

Enable Automatic Connect
If the Enable automatic connect check box is checked (unchecked by default), the Wireless WAN user inter-
face will attempt to establish a GPRS connection whenever GPRS is available (e.g. after resume from suspend
without further user interaction).
To activate the automatic connection mode:
• Tap on the OK button.
While automatic connection mode is enabled, the Connect Data button in the main Wireless LAN dialog
box changes to Disable Auto. To close the currently active connection (if any) and disable the automatic
connection mode:
• Tap on Disable Auto.
IMPORTANT
Use Virtual Serial Port
If Use virtual serial port is enabled, packet data connections are established through the virtual serial port of
the WWAN driver rather than through the WWAN driver directly. This check box should only be checked if
certain third-party VPN (Virtual Private Network) clients are used that do not work correctly otherwise. The
default setting is disabled (unchecked).
NOTE
The connection setup takes longer through the virtual serial port.
Enable Automatic Configuration
In most cases, the data connection is configured automatically and no user interaction is required. This is true
even if multiple SIM cards from different operators are used with the same device. The connection parameters
are adjusted automatically when a new SIM card is detected (this may require a warm boot). The connection
parameters are retrieved from a database.
Manual configuration should be necessary only if:
Wireless Wide Area Network (WWAN) Settings G - 7
Automatic connection mode should not be used if applications other
than the Wireless WAN user interface (e.g. Connection Manager)
are expected to open and close connections.
If the automatic connection mode is enabled and another applica-
tion closes the GPRS connection, the WWAN user interface will
immediately try to re-establish the connection.
