55 Mobile Web Mobile Web Data connection It's simple. When you turn your phone on for the first time (with the SIM card inserted), it should connect automatically to your mobile operator's data service. You can start browsing the web straight away. Do not change the connection settings as this may cause services to stop working. If you're having problems connecting to the Internet and you really need to change some settings, see "Adding a new access point" in this chapter to find out how to change them. Please contact your mobile operator for the proper settings. Turning the data connection on or off Turning your data connection off can help optimize your battery life. It can also save money on data charges. However, when your data connection is turned off, you may not always receive automatic updates to your email, social network accounts, and other synchronized information. 1.
