Wireless Manager Status Screen

When a connection is established, the connection statistics (duration, bytes transmitted, bytes
received) are displayed and updated at regular intervals.

Note:

Statistics display is not supported on Window 98(SE) or Me platforms. To view statistic data
when using these operating systems hover your mouse cursor over the standard Windows
Dial-up Networking icon.

Connection

To connect, cancel or disconnect a GPRS or HSCSD/CSD data session
use the Connect/Disconnect drop down menu. The menu displays all the
connections you have defined, so you can quickly select the required
connection.

The Control button, located underneath the drop down menu, changes
its appearance depending on the state of the GC79 connection. The button
allows you to:

Initiate a connection (Connect)

Cancel connection attempt (Cancel)

Disconnect (Hang-up) an existing session

To create a connection see Create a GPRS, HSCSD or CSD Connection on page 13.

Note:

You can also launch or terminate a CSD dialup networking sessions directly from the Windows
Network Connections icon. A HSCSD networking session initiated outside Wireless Manager
will require some additional settings to be added to your init string, see Appendix D- Initiating
a HSCSD Connection from Outside the Wireless Manager on page 85.
