Once I connect to the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network, how
do I access my corporate network through a VPN?
Once you complete a wireless connection, you may need to launch an extranet
client provided by your company and supply the appropriate username and
password to gain access. For support, contact your company help desk.
How can I optimize my settings to achieve the fastest
speeds and conserve data when accessing my corporate
network?
Depending on your corporate email client, you can optimize your settings by
doing the following:
Work in “offline” mode, and connect only when you need to send or receive
email.
Remove the Preview Pane, or use the AutoPreview for headers only.
Save attachments to a desktop folder and then open from that folder, rather
than opening the attachment directly from the message.
For more information, access the Microsoft white paper at:
