Network Settings

Network Settings allow you to change your preference for which network type NotifyLink uses when opening network connections.  These preferences can be configured at registration or through these settings.

The default at registration is Auto Detect.  This setting detects the available networks on the device and uses those networks in the order in which you have prioritized them.  See Network Connection Options for additional information.

 

This settings option has User Assistance    Select Show Help from the menu to display help text.

 

Choose Your Preferred Network

1.  Select the NotifyLink icon from the Home screen.

2.  From the message list menu, select Preferences > Network Settings.

3.  Set your preference for the Automatic Radio Cycle.  If attempts to open a network connection consistently fail, the device can:

•      Prompt - Prompt you before it cycles the radio off and on

•      Yes - Automatically cycle the radio

•      No - Display a dialog advising you to restart your device manually

                                                   

 

4.  Select a Preferred Network from the Available Networks list or choose Auto Detect then select and prioritize the connection types.

Hints:  If you intend to use Direct Push synchronization, you must use TCP network provisioning.
If you are not using a WAP network, select Hide WAP from the menu.

 

Prioritize Connection Types for Auto Detect

If you choose Auto Detect for the Preferred Network, arrange the list of available networks in the order that you want them to be used.  The first item in the list will always be used by default.  If connection is not successful with the default, attempts are made with the other networks in the order in which they are listed.  You can also disable the network types that you do not wish to use.  See also Network Connection Options for information on network connection restrictions associated with Auto Detect.

 

1.  Highlight the Auto Detect option in the Available Networks list and select Edit from the menu.

2.  Use the arrows to change the priority of the connection types used or disable the type(s) you do not want to use by moving them into the Do Not Use area.

 

3.  Select Save from the menu.
