On the
General
page, define the following settings:
Connect without asking
— Select which connections are used without
asking when connection is needed. This setting applies only to networks
and connections you have saved in your device.
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 call), 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.
