messaging, one of these data networking connections must be
available:
•GPRS
•EDGE
•3G
•HSPA
•Wi-Fi
GPRS/EDGE/3G/HSPA
To connect to the web using GPRS, EDGE, 3G, or HSPA
Your device is configured with GPRS, EDGE, 3G, or HSPA network
available with the service provider of the SIM card installed in your
device. However, this is only limited to voice calling and text
messaging. If a Wi-Fi connection is currently available, the device
automatically uses the Wi-Fi connection to access the Internet. The
