Getting started
With the Nokia D211 you can:
•
establish a General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) connection where information
is sent in short bursts of data over the cellular network. The benefit of sending
data in packets is that the network is occupied only when sending or receiving
data. GPRS is ideal for applications which transmit data in short bursts, such as
Web browsers. The data rate can be up to 40.2 kbit/s. You need to subscribe to
the GPRS service.
•
connect to a GSM network where you can send and receive text and picture
messages. You can also connect to the Internet or your e-mail by making a data
call, which enables data transmission rates of up to 14.4 kbit/s. You can make
GSM high-speed data calls if your network supports High Speed Circuit
Switched Data (HSCSD) technology and you have subscribed to GSM high-
speed data services. HSCSD technology is especially suited for active file
transfer, and the data rate can be up to 43.2 kbit/s.
•
connect to a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) and send and receive data
like in a regular wired LAN. The data rate in WLAN can be up to 11 Mbit/s.
