Packet data connections in GSM and UMTS networks, Glossary: GPRS - mobile

Page 98 highlights

Tools Glossary: GPRS, General Packet Radio Service, uses packet data technology where information is sent in short packets of data over the mobile network. • MMS access point to, for example, send and receive multimedia messages, • access point for the Web application to view WML or XHTML pages, and • Internet access point (IAP) to, for example, send and receive e-mail. Check the kind of an access point you need with your service provider for the service you wish to access. For availability and subscription to packet data connection services, contact your network operator or service provider. Packet data connections in GSM and UMTS networks When you are using your phone in GSM and UMTS networks it is possible to have multiple data connections active at the same time; access points can share a data connection; and data connections remain active (for example, during voice calls). For information on how to see how many data connections are active, see Connection manager, p. '91'. See also network indicators in Essential indicators, p. '15'. The following indicators may appear below the signal indicator, depending on which network you are using: - GSM network, packet data is available in the network. - GSM network, packet data connection is active, data is being transferred. - GSM network, multiple packet data connections are active. - GSM network, packet data connection is on hold. (This can happen during a voice call, for example.) - UMTS network, packet data is available in the network. - UMTS network, packet data connection is active, data is being transferred. - UMTS network, multiple packet data connections are active. - UMTS network, packet data connection is on hold. 98 Copyright © 2005 Nokia.

Packet data connections in GSM and UMTS networks
When you are using your phone in GSM and UMTS networks it is possible to have multiple
data connections active at the same time; access points can share a data connection; and
data connections remain active (for example, during voice calls). For information on how
to see how many data connections are active, see Connection manager
, p. ’91’
. See also
network indicators in Essential indicators
, p. ’15’
.
The following indicators may appear below the signal indicator, depending on which
network you are using:
- GSM network, packet data is available in the network.
- GSM network, packet data connection is active, data is being transferred.
- GSM network, multiple packet data connections are active.
- GSM network, packet data connection is on hold. (This can happen during a voice call,
for example.)
- UMTS network, packet data is available in the network.
- UMTS network, packet data connection is active, data is being transferred.
- UMTS network, multiple packet data connections are active.
- UMTS network, packet data connection is on hold.
