www.nokia.com into IP addresses such

EAP Extensible authentication protocol. EAP
plug-ins are used in wireless networks to
authenticate wireless devices and
authentication servers.
EGPRS Enhanced GPRS. EGPRS is similar to GPRS,
but it enables faster connection. For
availability and data transfer speed,
contact your service provider.
GPRS General packet radio service. GPRS
enables wireless access for mobile
phones to data networks (network
service). GPRS uses packet data
technology where information is sent in
short bursts of data over the mobile
network. The benefit of sending data in
packets is that the network is occupied
only when sending or receiving data. As
GPRS uses the network efficiently, it
allows for quick data connection setup
and fast data transmission speeds.
You must subscribe to the GPRS service.
For availability and subscription to GPRS,
contact your service provider.
During a voice call, you cannot establish
a GPRS connection, and any existing GPRS
connection is put on hold unless the
network supports dual transfer mode.
GPS Global positioning system. GPS is a
worldwide radio navigation system.
