your phone, you are ready to make connections. Depending on the type of link you
configured (infrared, cable, or Bluetooth), refer to the appropriate set of
instructions below.
By default, your handheld disconnects automatically when the connection is
inactive for 1 minute.
If you used the Network Preferences screen to set up multiple network service
profiles, you can choose a different service when you establish a connection.
See “Network preferences” in Chapter 17 for information on setting up multiple
network service profiles.
