In the following section, all the parameters that need to be configured for a connection (such
as APN, user name, password, DNS server addresses etc.) are referred to as a profile. Every
profile is identified by an arbitrary, unique name. The profile named Default is special in
that it is always present and can neither be edited nor deleted. (A sample dialog box is pre-
sented on the page following.) The Default profile uses parameters from a built-in database.
The home network (the network that issued the SIM) is used for the database look-up. While
there can be many configured profiles, only one profile can be active at any time.
If connection profiles are configured manually then the Enable automatic configuration:
checkbox should normally be unchecked.
In one particular use case, manually configured profiles may be combined with automatic
configuration. If multiple SIM cards are used with the same device, each SIM card being
from a different operator and some or all of them requiring a manually set up profile, auto-
matic configuration may be used to automatically pick the correct manually configured
profile for each SIM card. For this to work each profile has to be configured while the corre-
sponding SIM card is inserted in the device and initialized (i.e. the status is at least SIM is
ready).
The Select profile dropdown list in the data configuration profile selects which profile a sub-
sequent action applies to. A profile named Default is always present and contains the current
parameters from the database. The following actions are available:
•
Show – The parameters for the selected profile are displayed when you tap on this
button. For the Default profile, the publicly known password is shown – otherwise, the
password is hidden.
• Edit – The parameters of the selected profile can be edited when you choose the Edit
button. Keep in mind that you cannot edit the Default profile.
• Delete – The selected profile is deleted. You cannot delete the Default profile.
• Activate – When this button is chosen, the selected profile is made the active profile.
Activation is possible only if the Enable automatic configuration: checkbox is
unchecked.
Important: For CDMA/1xRTT, automatic configuration is not available – connec-
tions must be configured manually. Under APN, the packet service access
number must be entered (typically “#777”).
