T-Mobile Austria’s configuration for the Nokia N71 is made available on request. It works…but annoyingly terminates your GPRS/UMTS connection after approximately 5 minutes without data transfer. If you use an application like PuTTY for Symbian, this can become very annoying…but TamsS60 has a solution for you:

Open the Settings application and go into the connection sub-menu:
0a Disable network connection time out on a Nokia N71

There, choose Data Call. Set Online time to unlimited…it should look like in the picture below:
0b Disable network connection time out on a Nokia N71

With these ‘modifications’ in place, my N71 stays connected happily to a SSH server for hours without any activity – adios, network timeouts!
