Need some help with t-Mobile UK GPRS/3G Settings

[seanrkelly]

Got myself an HTC Tytn a couple of days ago, found some config stuff on the internet, could connect with a big fat U at the top, but for the whole day now won't connect. Could someone share their T-mobile settings with me? I use a PAYG sim that has a £1 a day internet access, are the settings the same for payg as contract? Thanks in advance..

I've got a T-mobile VarioII but I know that there are some minor but significant differences between the 2 setups. Why not search on the 'Universal' forum for 'T-mobile Pay-s-u-go' settings which would include everything you need as the Universal is 3G also? Just a thought. Good luck.

I got a pay as you go sim from t-mobile last monday and it worked fine till early wednesday morning when it stopped working mid way through checking posts on here. Has not worked since and customer service have been unable to tell me why. It will not work in my web n walk pro data card either. I'm still trying to find out what's going on.

I will check on the settings but I've only found reference to the same connection settings.

My settings are...

APN: general.t-mobile.uk
User: user
Password: wap

Never needed anything else, no ports or proxys etc, just the above. Used them in my universal, wizard and no my tytn

For official t-mobile settings and setup guide see ...

Hope this helps.

Got it sorted!

Username should be: t-mobile
Password should be: tm

Payg sim started working straight away.

Also improves the times when the connection hangs on my data card as well.

I still can't connect (although it wasn't a problem a couple of days ago) I just get the following:

Connecting...
Locating...

Then it just hangs there. Anyone got any other ideas?

Mine can do this for upto a minute on each new connection. Once it eventually works mine will be fine for the remaining time of the connection.

Sean make sure you are using

general.t-mobile.uk NOT general.t-mobile.co.uk

The user and password I am using after converting my Orange 3100 is t-mobile and password.

Works fine for me.

Thanks Quilty, changing my password did the trick!
