How to use your Roadpost
BlackBerry overseas
Confirming network connectivity
While roaming on a variety of networks around the world, the
signal you receive on your Roadpost BlackBerry may vary. An
icon at the top right of your screen will confirm the type of
signal you are currently receiving:
• GPRS (all in caps) indicates that you have a full signal that
will allow you to send and receive emails as well as make
and receive calls.
• gsm or gprs (lower case) will allow you to make and
receive calls, but not send email.
Changing networks
If you are not receiving a full GPRS signal, the network you
are currently roaming on (network name is shown on screen)
may not allow data transmission. Refer to the list of GPRS
networks provided with this user guide, and follow the
instructions below.
1. Click
(Options) using the trackwheel.
2. Select Network to view the network you are currently on.
Note: This screen will also display the current scan mode.
Ensure that your scan mode is set to 'Manual' so that you can
control which network you are using. You should ensure that
you are always on one of the networks on the insert provided
to ensure that you always have a full GPRS signal. Highlight
the current scan mode and click the trackwheel. Select
'Change Option' and select 'Manual'.
