This is the Internet version of the user's guide. © Print only for private use. New GPRS account For some accounts you may need to make advanced settings, provided by your ISP. Select Advanced and enter settings on the tabs as described below GPRS Advanced tabs Server User name and password Normally, you do not have to enter a username and password when you connect to a GPRS account. However, some service providers may require you to enter these details. If you select the Username and password required check box, but do not enter a username and password, you will be prompted to enter these when the P910a connects. Address Enter the Internet address of your access point. The address is supplied by your service provider. GPRS Advanced tabs Log in The settings on this tab deal with IP and DNS addresses. The DNS address uniquely identifies your Internet Service Provider (ISP)'s computers, which your P910a uses to connect to the Internet. Your P910a can normally fetch these addresses automatically from most ISPs. If, after setting up an Internet account, you cannot connect to the Internet and you suspect these addresses are incorrect, ask your ISP for their primary and secondary DNS addresses. An IP address consists of four 3-digit boxes and valid input is between 000 and 255 in each box. Proxy A proxy server is a computer connected between your P910a and the computer you communicate with. This arrangement can be used for connections to Remote Sync servers, or within a company network. If this setting is needed, your company's Information Services department or Remote Sync provider must give you instructions. Other If your ISP supports Point to Point Protocol (PPP) extensions, you can select the Enable PPP extensions check box. PPP extensions allow your P910a to provide features such as encryption, which increases the security of your Internet connection. Control panel 157
