    How to determine if a VPN is working

    vpn

    As already suggested, as a first step you need to find out what is VPN and if you need it or not.

    After that you need to determine which VPN type you need for your tasks.

    Then you need to check if VPN software is available for for your phone.

    VPN software (VPN clients) for Nokia/Symbian phones.
