  4. How do I change the default Internet connection type for the Samsung i600?

    If you are on a NationalAccess only calling plan, the default connection should be set to Express Network to avoid excessive data charges. To change the connection type, follow these steps:

    1. For devices with the Windows Mobile 2003 Smartphone operating system, select Start > 8 Settings > 9 More > 1 Data Connections.
      • If your device has the Pocket PC 2002 Smartphone operating system, select Programs > 9 More > 2 Settings > 7 Data Connections.
    2. Scroll to Internet connection.
    3. Scroll left or right to select the desired option (available options are listed below).
      • Automatic: This is the default setting. Your device will automatically select the best connection based on coverage area.
      • Quick 2 Net: Always utilize the Quick 2 Net connection. Note: If you are on a NationalAccess only calling plan you may be charged up to $0.65 per minute for Quick 2 Net usage, resulting in a higher than expected bill.
      • Express Network: Always utilize the NationalAccess connection.
      • Pass through connection: This setting will only appear when the device is connected to ActiveSync via the cradle. This option forces the i600 to use your laptop or desktop PC as a gateway to the Internet.
    4. Once you have made the necessary changes, press Done followed by the Home key to return to the main screen.
    5. Your default connection has been changed.
