2.4.2 Authentication

Internet access requires authentication of the Ericsson W20. Depending on
the current Internet service setup, the authentication requests may differ.
Your service provider provides the Ericsson W20 SIM card and details
needed for authentication.

The following authentication details may be required:

SIM authentication.

PIN

If enabled, SIM authentication is automatic and you
will not have to enter the PIN in case of a system
restart.

Remember my

The 3G Access Point Name, which is a reference to
the UMTS Internet access point on the service
provider’s network. The APN usually has the format
<name.service_provider.country>.

APN (3G)

the GPRS/EDGE Internet access point on the service
provider’s network. The APN usually has the format
