Simply set "Always Online" in the services profile. However, being a Nokia
it might have a lot of problems with this.

The 6310 is a class B Mobile Station which can be GPRS-attached and
IMSI-attached simultaneously. However, it may only use one service at a
time. When you are GPRS attached, your phone will 'camp' on the GPRS network
instead of the GSM network, however MT (Mobile Terminated) CSD connections
are paged over the GPRS network.

When you wish to establish a CSD connection, the GPRS connection is
suspended, and resumed when the CSD connection is terminated.
