Did anyone get this working?
I have an XDA unlocked and using a PAYG Orange SIM, I have had GPRS switched on by Orange for the sim but still have problems.
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): payginternet
Username : none
Password : none

I get a 'Connected' message comes up but no data and attempts to surf to any URL pause for a long long while and then come up as 'page could not be found'.
Any ideas anyone?
Any help much appreciated

Hey all,
I'm trying to get GPRS working on my XDA II (Qtek rom).
I made a new (modem) connection.
name: Orange world
modem: Cellular Line (GPRS)
Access point name: internet (as provided by Orange NL)
No username, password or domain
No ip
Pri Dns: 10.250.255.188
Sec Dns: 10.250.255.188 (as provided by Orange NL)
Finish
Press the antenna and tap on : connect to GPRS.
It connects and I get the same arrows when active syncing.
But when I open an Internet page or try to logon MSN it wont work...
Anyone an idea?
cheers
Are you sure you spelled 'internet' no capitals at the acces point name?
You could try to choose server assigned Ip address.
Another thing you could check is: settings> connections > Gprs setting> PAP authentication and class 10.
Yes I spelled internet, lowercase
Rudegar told me to only use the access point and not the DNS servers.
And it works!
Thanks
The GPRS Settings:
do they need to be: PAP or CHAP authentication?
do they need to be: Class 8 or Class 10
and whats the difference between them?
i've read class 8 everywhere
Hi guys,
Is any wizard user in delhi (India) using airtel as service provider?
The problem i'm facing is that i'm not able to send/recieve MMS messages on my O2 mini s.
I've tried contacting airtel people and they just gave me the settings they have in their book, But after various efforts it's not working.
The GPRS and rest of the things like sms, mail etc are working fine.
Here are the settings they gave me
Server Name : Airtel MMS
Gateway : 100.1.201.172
Port : 9201
Server Address : http://100.1.201.171:10021/mmsc
Connect using : GPRS
If anyone is using some other settings or if there is something that i'm missing then please lemme know.

Same problem once upon a time.
But I have found that I was able to sucessfully send an MMS at night. I mean very late night or early morning I should say. When I asked the helpdesk, they told me that I happen to be in a network congested area. But then she was kind enough to give a reset on my profile which took me out of the network for a couple of minutes. When I was latched again, viola !!! no problems !!
Try that.!
By the way, what speeds do you get ? I get an excellent speed in Mumbai on Airtel than on Orange. Orange sucks real bad these days.
Hi araje,
Thanks for the reply. I've tried the resetting thing also but it was of no use.
Anyway I've found out the solution to this problem. Actually the GPRS settings that we use, has got the problem. Here's what i did ...
I created a new GPRS connection with the name MMS ( Cellular line (GPRS)).
gave the access point as airtelmms.com
In the advanced tab use "server assigned IP address", and enable the box "Use Ip header compression".
Now comes the real part...... in the servers tab, use "specific server address" and specify DNS as 100.1.201.172 and press OK.
Now to use the MMS part u go to connection settings, connect using this new connection and u'll be able to send and recieve MMS with out any problems.
For browsing and all use the other (ur normal) GPRS connection.
Though switching between connections is a pain in the a** but as i don't use MMS too much, it's ok for once in a while.
Well, Airtel provides EDGE connection in delhi (that's what my phone indicates me :wink: ), but when i use it to download something on my pc it gives me a speed of 4-5 Kbps. Though it is not good to surf on pc (anyway i use broadband at home and work), but is good enough to work on my wizard.
Also i cannot complain about it coz i get it for 99 bucks a month ... so what else could u expect

Hey Vineet,
Are you able to connect to Airtel Live ?
From the website here are the settings. I have been able to set some stuff but points 8,9,10-14 are tricky. I tried following your settings you used for mms but didnt help. Any idea how to set this ?
1 Connection Name: Airtel Live!
2 Data Bearer: GPRS
3 Access Point Name: airtelfun.com
4 Username: MSISDN e.g. 91982xx xxxxx
5 Prompt Password: No
6 Password: < blank >
7 Homepage: http://live.airtel.in
8 Connection Security: Off
9 Session Mode: Permanent
In case of the WAP 2.0 complaint phones, the following extra settings need to be done:
Under Options > Advanced Settings
10 Phone IP Address: Automatic
11 Primary name server: 0.0.0.0
12 Second. Name server: 0.0.0.0
13 Proxy server. address: 100.1.200.99
14 Proxy port number: 8080
hey what phone are you using??
i've mentioned the settings for wizard (O2 mini s), iguess others will also have similar settings.... try that and let me know...
I am using Qtek9100 with AKU rom.
The new connection I created was exactly on your lines.

I set most of the stuff based on the way you created your connection. But how did you specify the port 9201. In my case I put the server ip mentioned in point13 in the DNS entry. But there isnt anyway to enter the port number.
Are you able to use the airtel live website ? Also one thing is that my Airtel mobile office works perfect since I dont have to enter any advance settings. Just the APN, and no userid/password. However, the airtel live website doesnt load with this connection. I use it mainly for laptop.
Thanks for your help in advance

Airtel Karnataka MMS settings
Those of us who have approached Airtel for help in configuring MMS on Windows Mobile devices know that their very competent customer service reps are blissfully unaware of the existence of Windows Mobile OS leave alone its variants like WM 5, WM 6 and 6.1. Ans when they direct one to their 'special GPRS helpdesk' the special GPRS guys haven't heard of anything newer than WM 5 because they attempt to walk one through the WM 5 UI.
Well to avoid calling Airtel, activate the MMS service on your account by sending a text message MMS ACTV to 222. Once the service is active, do not ask for MMS settings to be sent over the air as Windows Mobile doesn't accept OTA settings. Instead key-in the settings yourself:
MMS Settings for the Sony Ericssson X1i (Xperia)
Windows Mobile 6.1
1. Tap Start -> Settings
2. On the Settings screen tap on the Connections tab
3. Tap the Connections icon

7. Choose Celular Line (GPRS, 3G) from the drop-down list under Select a modem
8. Tap Next
9. Type-in airtelmms.com under Acess point name
10. Tap Next
11. Leave the username, password and all other fields blank
12. Tap Finish
If there is more than one data connection configured on the Manage Existing Connections page, please ensure that the radio button beside Auto Pick is selected.
Tap OK to exit and tap OK once again to return to the main settings page.
Tap Start -> Messaging
Tap SMS \ MMS
Tap Menu -> MMS Options
Place a check mark beside the following:
• Save sent messages
• Allow delivery Report
• Allow Read report
Set the Retrieval mode to Auto
Set the Attempts before giving up to 3
Tap on Servers
Tap New
Under Server Name enter AirtelMMS or MMS
The Gateway should be set to 100.1.201.172
The Port number should be set to 8799
Enter http://100.1.201.171:10021/mmsc under server address
Under Connect Via, please choose the name of the data account created in step 6 above
Choose 100K as the send limit
And set the WAPVersion to WAP 2.0
Tap Done
Tap OK to return to SMS \ MMS

Is your APN setup correctly for your carrier?
