Vodafone GPRS setup

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I have an unlocked XDA using a Vodafone GPRS sim. I have followed the directions posted on this board to configure the GPRS and when I connect through the system settings, connections I (for a short while) get the 'G' symbol appear and then I get a connection dropped sound.

Is this due to a poor connection, or is there something wrong with the setup?

I am using these settings:-

Modem type : Cellular Line (GPRS)
Baud rate : 19200
IP Address : Server assigned
Software compression : Off
Header Compression : Off
DNS : Server assigned
ALT DNS : Server assigned
WINS : Server assigned
ALT WINS : Server assigned
AccessPointName (APN): internet
Username : web
Password : web
Domain : none
Dialing locations
area code : 425
country code : 1
Dialing patterns
local : G
long distance : none
international : G

Those settings worked for me in the UK with Vodafone, many thanks!

I have had all sorts of fun with Vodafone GPRS recently. It used to work then it packed up about a month ago for no apparent reason. After 6 calls to Vodafone support and all the usual hassle with trying to convince them that an O2 XDA will work with Vodafone it turned out they had disabled my GPRS account without telling me.

It took a further two calls to get the APN internet renabled. It seems that GPRS means WAP access to Vodafone, not necessarily internet access through an APN. Worth giving them a call to make sure you account is fully enabled for internet as well as WAP.
