chapter in the user guide. It explains the start-up procedure and gives basic

information on how to use the various applications.

•This user guide explains in more detail how the Nokia 9290 Communicator

operates. “General information” identifies the various parts of the

communicator and their functions, as well as the common features of the

communicator.

The rest of this user guide deals with the communicator applications and the

phone. There is a short glossary of Internet and wireless terms and

abbreviations at the back of the user guide.

the display are in bold and the settings and options are in italics.

Facts about your communicator

About system services

The wireless phone described in this user guide is GSM 1900 MHz.

A number of features included in this user guide are called network or system

services. They are special services provided by wireless service providers. Before you

can take advantage of any of these services, you must subscribe to the service(s)

you require from your home service provider and obtain instructions for their use.

You can then activate these functions as described in this user guide. The manual

activation commands for various services are not presented in this user guide (for

example, using the and characters for activating or deactivating services).

The Nokia 9290 Communicator, nevertheless, is capable of handling commands

given in that form. For these commands, please consult with your service providers.

Introduction

Services that need to be subscribed to are typically the short message service,

Internet, and fax.

Because the number of special services depends on what services are available in

your home network, it is, unfortunately, impossible to provide a comprehensive list

of the services and settings you need in this user guide. Therefore, this user guide

gives general information about additional services. Please contact your service

provider for further information about the availability and the details of services

in your home system.

Tip: Write the

information you obtain from

your service provider down

on the Getting Started card

for future reference.

If a service requires separate phone numbers or specific settings, they must be

stored in the settings of the communicator. For example:

Sending and receiving short messages requires that this service is supported by the

system you are using and activated for your SIM card, and that the phone number

of the message

is stored in the settings of the SMS application.

Internet access requires that data service is supported by the system you are using

and activated for your SIM card. In addition, you must have obtained an Internet

access point from an Internet service provider.

Access codes

The Nokia 9290 Communicator uses several access codes to protect against

unauthorized use of your communicator and SIM card. The access codes you need

most often are:

•the lock code to lock up your communicator, and

•the PIN code, which is provided with the SIM card.

Introduction

IMPORTANT: The default lock code is 12345. For security reasons, it is

imperative that you change the lock code. Keep the code secret and in a

safe place, separate from the communicator. For more information on

changing access codes, see section ‘Security’ on page 212.

You can change access codes that are used by both the phone and the

communicator interface via either of them, provided that the code can be changed.

For further details on access codes, see ‘Security’ on page 212.

The Internet applications of the communicator use passwords and user names to

protect against unauthorized use of the Internet and its services. These passwords

are changed in the settings of the Internet applications.

Contact information

Tip: You can synchronize

the contact information on

your communicator with a

corresponding application

on a compatible PC. See the

PC Suite Guide on the CD-

ROM for details.

All contact information that you store in the Contacts application, such as names,

addresses, and phone numbers, goes into the Contacts directory. The phone, the

communicator interface, and each of the applications have their own views of the

Contacts directory. The information shown depends on the information the

selected application can use. For example, when you are making a call via the

phone, you can view the name and phone number(s) of the contact. Possible fax

numbers, e-mail addresses, job titles, and so on, are not shown.

GSM data transmission

The Nokia 9290 Communicator employs the data transmission capabilities of the

GSM 1900 MHz system to send faxes, short messages, and e-mail, and to establish

connections with remote computers.

Introduction

Wireless data connections can be made from most locations where your phone

operates. However, it is recommended that you move the communicator to a

location where the strongest possible wireless signal can be obtained. When the

signal is strong, data transmission is efficient. In general, you should not expect

the same performance from wireless data communications as from landline

communications, due to the inherent characteristics of the wireless environment.

The following factors may impair wireless connections:

Noise

Radio interference from electronic appliances and equipment, as well as from

other phones will affect the quality of wireless data transmission.

Cell handover

As the phone user moves from one network cell to another, the signal strength of

the channel drops and the wireless telephone exchange may handover the user to

a different cell and frequency, where the signal is stronger. A cell handover may

also occur when the user is stationary, due to varying wireless traffic loads. Such

handovers may cause slight delays in the transmission.

Electrostatic discharge

A discharge of static electricity from a finger or a conductor may cause erroneous

functions in electric devices. The discharge may result in distorted display and

unstable software operation. Wireless connections may become unreliable, data

may become corrupted, and the transmission halted. In this case you need to end

Introduction

the existing call (if any), close the cover and switch off the phone (if on) and

remove the battery. Then replace the battery and establish a new wireless

connection.

Dead spots and dropouts

Dead spots are areas where radio signals cannot be received. Dropouts occur when

the phone user passes through an area where the radio signal is blocked or reduced

by geographical features or large structures.

Signal impairment

Distance and obstacles can cause signals to become out-of-phase. They can also

cause reflected signals. Both situations result in a loss of signal strength.

Low signal strength

Due to either distance or obstacles, the radio signal strength from a cell site may

not be strong or stable enough to provide a reliable data connection for

communication. Therefore, to ensure the best possible communication, remember

the following points:

•The data connection works best when the communicator is in a stationary

position. Attempting wireless data communication while in a moving vehicle is

not recommended. Fax transmission is more easily impaired than data or short

message transmission.

•Do not place the communicator on a metal surface.

Introduction

•Check that the signal strength on the communicator display is sufficient.

Moving the communicator within a room, especially towards a window, may

result in a stronger signal. If signals are not strong enough to support a voice

call, data connection should not be attempted until you can find a location with

better signal reception.

Note: When the antenna is up, the signal is stronger.

General information

Battery information

Tip: Read this section for

information on how to

prolong the life of your

battery.

Use the battery only for its intended purpose.

Never use any charger or battery that is damaged or worn out.

Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can occur when a

metallic object (for example coin, clip, or pencil) causes direct connection of the +

and - terminals of the battery (metal strips on the bottom of the battery), for

example, when you carry a spare battery in your pocket or purse. Short-circuiting

the terminals may damage the battery or the connecting object.

Leaving the battery in hot or cold conditions, such as in a closed car in summer or

winter conditions, will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try

to keep the battery between +15°C (+59°F) and +25°C (+77°F). A communicator

with a hot or cold battery may temporarily not work, even when the battery is fully

charged. The performance of Lithium-ion batteries is particularly limited in

temperatures below 0°C (+32°F).

Do not dispose of batteries in a fire!

Batteries must be recycled or disposed of properly. Batteries must not be disposed

of in municipal waste.

Note that a new battery’s full performance is achieved only after two or three

complete charge and discharge cycles.

Use only batteries approved by the communicator manufacturer and recharge the

battery only with the chargers approved by the manufacturer. With approved

chargers and accessories, the battery can be charged continuously.

General information

The battery need not be fully discharged before recharging. When a charger is not

in use, disconnect it from the power source. Do not leave the battery connected to

a charger for longer than a week, since excessive charging may shorten its life. If

left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself over time.

The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but it will eventually

wear out. When the operating time (talk-time and stand-by time) is noticeably

shorter than normal, it is time to buy a new battery.

Temperature extremes will affect the ability of your battery to charge: allow it to

cool down or warm up first.

Battery operation time is affected by the following: whether both the phone and

the communicator interface are on, radio signal strength, various phone settings,

and the length of the screen blanker period.

It is recommended always to keep a charged battery in the communicator. Keeping

the battery charged maximizes the lifetime of the backup battery supplying power

to the real-time clock of the communicator. In case the backup battery is drained,

it will be automatically charged the next time a charged battery is reconnected to

the communicator.

Always close the device cover before removing the battery. Closing the cover will

save all data.

Note: The battery does not fit into place if the SIM card is not correctly

installed. Do not force the battery into place! Check that you have

inserted the SIM card as described in the Getting Started Guide. If the

SIM card is incorrectly installed, remove it by pulling it out of the slot,

and insert it again.

General information

Memory card

You can use the memory card delivered in your sales package to manage your

memory card with the Install/Remove software application, and send messages to

contacts in the contacts directory of the memory card.

Note: Do not remove the memory card in the middle of an operation.

9. Internet

This chapter describes how to get access to the Internet and how to use the

Internet applications, WWW browser and WAP browser.

Note: The Mail application, described in the Messaging chapter, also uses an

Internet connection. See ‘Mail’ on page 213.

To connect to the Internet,

•the wireless system you use must support data calls,

•the data service must be activated for your SIM card,

•you must have obtained an Internet access point from an Internet Service

Provider (ISP), and

•you must have entered the proper Internet settings.

Your ISP can give you instructions on how to configure the Internet settings.

Follow the instructions carefully.

Note: You must have your phone turned on, within system coverage and free

of any other voice or data call to connect to the Internet.

Setting up your Internet access point

Note: To be able to use the Internet services, you need to configure an Internet

connection. Some Internet service providers may offer you the possibility

to configure your Internet settings by sending you a smart message via

174

Internet

SMS. This might reduce the number of settings you may need to enter

yourself, or eliminate the need altogether. Please contact your Internet

Service Provider (ISP) for details.

Internet connections

To set up and change the Internet settings, you have two choices:

•Go to the Control panel in the Extras application and open Internet access, see

page 256, or,

•From the Internet application main view, press the Menu key and select Tools >

Internet access…. A dialog opens, see Figure 60.

Figure 60

The first two lines contain a summary of the details of the preferred connection.

Define the following:

175

Internet

Tip: You may have to set

up several Internet

connections, depending on

the sites you want to access.

For example, browsing the

WWW may require one

setup; browsing your

company’s intranet may

require another connection.

Preferred connection: The default connection which will be used to connect to the

Internet.

If idle, stay online: The connection to the Internet will automatically close after the

inactivity period defined here. The options are For 2 minutes/For 5 minutes/For 10

minutes/For 60 minutes.IMPORTANT: Some Internet connections may appear

inactive, but they may still be sending and receiving data in the

background. These connections may delay the start of the inactivity

period specified here, and therefore postpone the closing of the

connection.

Ask before connecting: The options are Yes/No. If you choose Yes, a connection

dialog appears every time you connect to the Internet, asking you to

either confirm, change, or cancel the connection, or change the Internet

access point. If you choose No, the communicator will choose the default

Internet access point.

Create a new connection or edit an existing

connection

ISPs require the use of Web proxies. Contact your ISP to determine proxy details.

178

Internet

When you have made an Internet connection for your company’s intranet, and you

are unable to retrieve Web pages from the general WWW, you may need to setup

a proxy server to retrieve Web pages outside your company’s intranet.

Tip: If you set Use proxy

179

Internet

Remote modem type: The options are Analog/V.110 ISDN /V.120 ISDN . This setting can

depend on both your GSM service provider and ISP, because some GSM

systems do not support certain types of ISDN connections. For details,

contact your Internet service provider. If ISDN connections are available,

they establish connections more quickly than analog methods.

Tip: A very basic GSM

data connection is:

Connection type: Normal,

Remote modem type: Analog,

and Max. connection speed:

Automatic.

Max. connection speed: The options are Automatic/9600/14400/19200/28800/38400/

43200, depending on what you have chosen in Connection type and Remote

modem type. This option allows you to limit the maximum connection

speed when High speed is used. Higher data rates may cost more,

depending on the system service provider.

Note: The speeds above are the maximum speed at which your connection will

operate. During the connection, the operating speed may be less,

depending on network conditions.

Modem initialization: Controls your communicator using modem AT commands. If

required, enter characters specified by your GSM system service provider

or ISP.

Callback page

Use callback: This option allows a server to call you back once you have made the

initial call, so you have a connection without paying for the call. Contact

your Internet service provider to subscribe to this service. The options are

Yes/No.

Note: Charges may apply for certain types of received calls, such as roaming

and high speed data calls. Contact your GSM service provider for more

information.

180

Internet

Note: The communicator expects the callback call to use the same data call

settings that were used in the callback-requesting call. The system must

support that type of call in both directions, to and from the

communicator.

Callback type: The options are Use server number/Use server number (IETF)/Use number

below. Ask your Internet service provider for the correct setting to use. The

setting depends on the service provider’s configuration.

Callback number: Type in your communicator’s data phone number which the dial

back server uses. Usually, this number is the data call phone number of

your communicator.

Other page

Figure 65

Allow plain text login: If you select Yes, the password at connection may be sent in

clear. The options are Yes/No. For optimum security, use option No. Some

Internet service providers require that this setting is Yes.

WAP

The WAP application can be used to access Internet services which are based on

the Wireless Application Protocol (WAP). These services can contain news, weather

reports, flight times, dictionaries, and so on.

Note: The content of each service depends on the content provider of that

service. To use such a service, follow the instructions provided by the

content provider.

Obtain access to WAP services

•you must be within the coverage of a system which supports data calls,

•a data service must be activated for your SIM card,

•you must have obtained a WAP access point from a WAP service provider, and

•you must have entered the proper WAP settings.

Differences between the WWW and WAP services

applications

The WAP application is similar to the WWW application, but there are two

differences:

193

Internet

•To access WAP services you need to define WAP access points in your

communicator. WAP access points are additional to the Internet settings. You

can receive WAP access points directly via a short message from your WAP

service provider, or define them manually. This chapter contains instructions for

manual setup.

•Certain bookmarks can be accessed through a specific access point, for

example, banking services may have to be accessed through the bank’s own

access point. The easiest way to use these kinds of services is to define an

altogether new bookmark which uses the correct WAP and Internet access

point.

Set up WAP connections

Note: Before you can use the WAP services, you need to configure your WAP

settings. Your WAP service provider will provide you with the exact

values for the WAP settings. Follow the instructions carefully. You can

use this information to define and edit the settings manually.

Furthermore, your service provider may be able to send some, or all, of

the required settings to you via a special short message, an Over The Air

(OTA) message. After you have received the settings, you can start using

the WAP application or edit the settings as described below.

Define and edit WAP connections

1Press the Menu key and select Tools > WAP access. A dialog opens.

2Press New to create a new connection, and Edit to edit an existing connection.

A dialog opens. See Figure 73.

3Press Close when you are ready.

Tip: The shortcut to

define and edit WAP access

points is Ctrl + Shift + X.

Name: Name of the connection. All your connections should have different

names. You can define each name freely.

Secure connection: Whether the security protocol TLS is used for the connection.

The options are Yes/No. Follow the instructions given to you by your WAP

service provider. See also Glossary term ‘Transport Layer Security’ on page

346.

Note: Some secure connections use authentication procedures. If

authentication fails, you may need to download some certification keys.

Contact your WAP service provider for details.

Internet access: Choose from a selection list the IAP you wish to use for this

connection. If you have no IAPs, you create a new one by pressing New

Internet access. See page 175.

Gateway IP address: The IP address that the required WAP gateway uses.

Changing WAP access points

1To change WAP access points, press the Menu key and select Tools > WAP access.

A dialog opens.

195

Internet

2Press Change to change the connection. A list opens.

3Choose the connection from the list and press OK.

Bookmarks

The Bookmarks view is the main view of the WAP application. You can organize,

edit, and view these bookmarks in the same way as WWW bookmarks, see page

191.

Tip: The shortcut to add a

bookmark is Ctrl+B.

To add a bookmark, press the Menu key, then select Bookmarks > Add bookmark. A

dialog opens. See Figure 74.

Figure 74

Note: A bookmark always uses the same connection defined in the WAP access

field. To set up a WAP access point, see page 191.

To open a WAP page defined in a bookmark, select the bookmark, then press Go to.

To edit bookmark settings, select the bookmark, then press Edit.
