VPN settings
The VPN settings menu allows you to set up and manage Virtual
Private Networks (VPNs).
Important!:
Before you can use a VPN you must establish and configure one.
Note:
To use a VPN, you need the data service plan from your wirelesss
provider. Contact your wireless provider for more information.
Using VPN consumes battery power and uses data service. While the
VPN is active, your phone’s applications will use the VPN data feature
