Web Paging (Web Messaging)
Nextel’s Web Paging enables you to page yourself, someone else or a
group of Nextel customers and includes “Schedule for Later” option,
which allows you to send yourself reminders. To use Web Paging,
follow the steps below:
1 From your computer’s Internet browser, go to nextel.com and
click “Send a Message”.
2 The browser automatically opens to “Send an Individual Mes-
sage”. To page an individual, or yourself, type the applicable
10-digit Nextel phone number (for example, 7035551234) in the
“To” field.
• To send a Group Page, select “Group Messaging”. In the “To”
field, type an individual’s 10-digit Nextel phone number.
Next, click the “Add” button. The information is inserted in a
new window and the “To” field is cleared so you can enter
another 10-digit Nextel phone number. You can send a Group
Message to up to 20 Nextel users at one time.
• To schedule a message for future delivery (up to 6 months in
advance), click on “Schedule for Later”. A new page appears
with the following fields: Month, Day, Year, Hour, Min.
(Minutes) and AM/PM. Click the down arrows at the end of
each field to select the desired month, day, etc. Then click on
the “OK” button to store your selections. (The “Cancel”
button closes the page without saving your selections.)
3 Type a Subject and a message in the message box.
You can click on the “Count Characters” button to have the
system tell you the number of characters in your message. The
total includes characters from the “To”, “From”, and “Subject”
fields as well as system generated characters. You can send text
messages up to 280 characters in length, sent as two sequential
140 character messages.
4 Click “Send Message” to send the message. (The “Clear” button
removes the information from every field.)
5 A new browser page opens with a copy of your message, the
recipient’s telephone number and a Claim Number. You can
write down the Claim Number to check on the delivery status
later.
