The Access Point Name (APN) is necessary only on GPRS networks (Edge or HSPA). It is the
name of the cellular network access point that provides a gateway to the Internet. This information
is provided by the wireless network when a data service account is registered.
NOTE
The dial string is a special command to be sent by the cellular modem to the cellular network
to establish a data connection. For example, a typical dial string for GSM/GPRS networks is
*99***1#. This command will depend on the wireless network. Contact the service provided for the
correct dial string command for data service. A regular telephone number is usually not required to
connect to a GSM/GPRS network.
