point name. You obtain the access point name from your service provider or
network operator. If you select Use access point provided by network, the
network will connect you to an available GPRS access point automatically if
this feature is supported by the network. Click Next.

new profile is completed. Click Finish.
To take the new profile into use, you must first select it. See "Selecting a profile
and connection type" on page 26 for more information.

list. Click Edit.

modified are explained on pages 28 – 32.

be edited.
Note: It is recommended that you do not edit a profile that is currently in use.
Use WLAN connection with this profile
Select this check box if you want to use the profile for accessing a WLAN.
Operating mode
Select one of the two available operating modes. In the infrastructure mode,
computers can communicate with each other and with wired LAN stations
through a WLAN access point. In the ad hoc mode, computers can send and
receive data directly with each other. No access point is needed. See "Wireless
Local Area Network (WLAN)" on page 10 for more information.
Network name
Network name is the name of the WLAN as defined by the system administrator. In
the ad hoc operating mode, the users themselves name the WLAN. You can add a
new network name to the list, edit an existing one, or delete a name. The network
name can contain a maximum of 32 characters, and is case-sensitive by default.
Configure settings manually
There are a number of advanced WLAN settings (fragmentation threshold,
listen interval, RTS threshold, security policy, etc.), which are configured
automatically. Select this check box and click Advanced if you want to specify a
new value manually.
