and screens during installation and setup procedures that are informational and quickly disappear
as Windows accomplishes each stage of processing. Windows may also display other screens
that ask for information that is not relevant to making a successful GPRS connection. Windows
displays a variety of these screens depending upon the configuration that you have already setup

What is GPRS Dial Up?
GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) is a standard feature in GSM phase 2 wireless
phones, which provides a TCP/IP wireless path to the Internet utilizing a GSM wireless
phone and a computer. This GPRS features provides a packet style data interface to the
Internet. Billing for usage of this interface is typically based upon the amount of
transmitted data and does not depend upon the length of time that the Internet session is
connected.
Your NEC Wireless Phone can be connected to your laptop or desktop computer and
used for a GPRS dial up connection instead of using a modem with a telephone line.
When you use the GPRS Dial Up, AT&T Wireless will charge applicable data rates for
access to GPRS Data Capable services.
NEC USB Drivers
The NEC USB Drivers contain the files that assist with the bi-directional flow of data
between the NEC Wireless Phone and your computer’s WindowsXP operating system
when it is connected to the Internet via the NEC approved USB cable.
NOTE: If you have already installed the USB Drivers for the synchronization
process to use Intellisync software, you DO NOT NEED TO RE-INSTALL
THE USB DRIVERS FOR THE GPRS DIAL UP. You may skip the USB
Drivers section and continue with the GPRS Dial Up Settings.
If you would like to use the synchronization function, refer to the NEC Wireless Phone
User Guide, Intellisync
Lite For NEC Wireless Phones Installation Guide, and
Intellisync
Lite For NEC Wireless Phones User Guide for synchronization information.
