Hi, Im having some trouble getting GPRS to work on my mini s.


I have just re-installed to a basic setup

If i go...

START->SETTINGS->CONNECTIONS->CONNCETIONS->ADVANCED->SELECT NETWORKS
the option in the drop box is My ISP or I can choose My Work Network, should o2 mobile web be in here too?

If i go
START->SETTINGS->CONNECTIONS->CONNCETIONS>MANAGE EXISTIN CONNECTIONS>(this brings you to the My ISP page) i have Name as "Mobile Web" and Number as mobile.o2.co.uk.

If I then edit, the name for the connection is "Mobile Web" with modem as "Cellular line (GPRS) Next>Access pont name is "mobile.o2.co.uk" NEXT> user name "O2web", password is ****************.

Tap ADVANCE>the TCP/IP tab is using server assigned IP address, TAP ON SERVERS TAB>USE SPECIFIC SERVER ADDRESS (DNS 193.113.200.200, alt DNS is 193.113.200.201). Tap OK> FINISH

If i try to connect to the net to look at google (or any other page) the large square G turns smaller with the 2 arrows and I get:

Cannot connect
Dialed mobile.o2.co.uk
Cannot connect for an unknown reason. To check and change settings BLAH BLAH BLAH....

All help appriciated!!! ( ireally need a step by step walkthrough if anyone has one. Im normally OK with computers, but this has beaten me so far!!!)

Thanks, Paul.

Thanks

I have tried to search for instructions on how and where to install the files from the download above, but couldnt find anything (Google didnt help either)

Can anyone let me in on the secret please?!?!?

You just copy the files to your PDA and double click on it using an explorer program (I recomend gsfinder+ as a good explorer replacement).

Hi,

I just tried that, i get a "there is no association with"Connec-1". Run the application first then open this file from within the application.

Any ideas what im doing wrong?
