GPRS Settings

GPRS Settings

To use GPRS, must enter required information such as APN (Access point name), username and password information which is provided by the operator.

There are 4 ways of configuring GPRS connection:

1. Using WM Connections setting wizard (manual configuration)

2. Using WWAN Manager (semi-auto configuration)

3. Using StartUp.inf included in StartUp folder of M3 flash disk files and operator’s .ini file (auto configuration)

4. Using XML (auto configuration)

1. GPRS Configuration using WM Wizard

To configure GPRS connection, follow the steps described below.

1. Click [Start][Settings]	2. Click [Connections]
3. Click ‘Add a new modem connection’ either in ‘My ISP’ or ‘My Work Network’.	4. Assign a unique name for the connection and select ‘Cellular Line (GPRS)’ from the drop down menu. Then, click ‘Next’
5. Enter ‘Access point name’ that is provided by the operator. Then, click ‘Next’.	6. Enter Username and password that are also provided by the operator. Then, click ‘Finish’.
7. After the GPRS profile is created, you can connect to the profile in ‘Manage existing connections’ from (iii).	8. Select one profile. Then, press and hold the stylus pen on the profile. From the pop-up menu, click ‘connect’ to connect to GPRS.

2. WWAN Manager(M3 SKY/ MM3)

To use WWAN Manager, WWAN_Manager.CAB must be installed. There are two ways of installing WWAN Manager:

1. Click WWAN_Manager.CAB in \Flash Disk \Driver or

[GPRS_INSTALL]

Install=1

InstalFile=\Flash Disk\Driver\WWAN_Manager.CAB

2. Set Install value of [GPRS_INSTALL] to 1 in M3.ini

1. Click [Start] [Settings].

2. Click [WWAN Manager] icon from [Connections] window.

3. Select Country / Region.

4. Select Operator (Service Provider).

5. Click 'Done' when finished.

If the operator you wish to connect does not appear in operator drop down menu, you can add new operator through ‘Add New Parameters...’ or if the operator’s details are wrong, you can edit it through ‘Edit Network Parameters...’

3. GPRS Configuration using StartUp.inf and .ini file provided by the Operator

To configure GPRS by this method, you need to have a copy of .ini file which contains the operator’s details something similar to:

[Country_Operator]

NUMBER=

IP_ADDRESS=

DNS_pRIMARY=

DNS_SECONDARY=

WINS_PRIMARY=

WINS_SECONDARY=

APN=

USERNAME=

PASSWORD=

CSD_PHONE_NUMBER=

CSD_USER_NAME=

CSD_USER_PW=

If you have the .ini file, copy the file to \Flash Disk \Driver. Then, add the following code in the StartUp.inf which is included in the StartUp folder of M3 flash disk files.

//GPRS Connection

CopyFile=/S "\Flash Disk\Driver\Country.ini" "\Windows\Provider\Country.ini"

sleep=500

RunExe= /S "\Windows\WWAN_Manager.exe" "Country,Country_Operator "

RegSetValue=/s dword [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\RIL]SetGPRSAuthentication:2

RunExe =/s "\Windows\WWAN_Manager.exe" "1,Country,Country_Operator"

Note: In the code, Country.ini, Country_Operator and Country are arbitrary examples. You should change it appropriately. In the last line of code, '1' will create the connection profile in My Work Network and '0' will create the connection profile in My ISP.

For operators included in WWAN Manger, corresponding .ini file is already included in \Windows \Provider folder. Hence, CopyFile command is not required.

Here is an example code.

//GPRS Connection

CopyFile=/S "\Flash Disk\Driver\Korea(South).ini" "\Windows\Provider\Korea(South).ini"

sleep=500

RunExe= /S "\Windows\WWAN_Manager.exe" "Korea,Korea(South)_KTF "

RegSetValue=/s dword [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\RIL]SetGPRSAuthentication:2

RunExe =/s "\Windows\WWAN_Manager.exe" "0,Korea,Korea(South)_KTF"

Finally, open M3.ini file which is also included in StartUp folder of the flash disk files. Then, set install value of 1 of [GPRS_INSTALL].

[GPRS_INSTALL]

Install=1

InstallFile=\Flash Disk\Driver\WWAN_Manager.CAB

Save the changed in StartUp.inf and M3.ini file then copy back to the device followed by reset.

4. Using XML

To use auto configuration using xml, GPRS.xml file is required. Here is an example of GPRS.xml.

Note that you must set [SET_GPRS], [GPRS_INSTALL] should set to 1 in M3.ini

In the XML file, you can set Connection Name, UserName, Password, APN as below.

<wap-provisioningdoc>

</characteristic>

</wap-provisioningdoc>

Copy GPRS.xml file into \Flash Disk\StarUp folder. And set install values of [SET_GPRS] and [GPRS_INSTALL] to 1 in M3.ini.

[SET_GPRS]

Install= 1

[GPRS_INSTALL]

Install=1

InstallFile=\Flash Disk\Driver\WWAN_Manager.CAB

Save the changes in M3.ini then copy back to the device followed by reset.
