hi i have an xda2s
the wifi works, but when out of a wifi area, i cant connect via gprs, it gives an error message saying " the answering modem has disconnected please check settings"
Any websites showing these gprs settings (even to check against what i have already) would be great. I am on contract with o2

I had this the other week after Pi**ng around with my connection settings, positive I put everything back as it was but my XDAiis refused to connect to GPRS or Receive SMS (bizarrely I could send OK!)
Tried everything but in the end had to do a hard reset and that fixed it
jimmy are you on Payg or contract?
Hi, got a new XDA Exec on 02 and am trying to work out how to get connected to the internet and email. Anyone got any recommendations for a good ISP? What is everyone else using?
Thanks for any help and happy new year!
hi!
happy new year to you too!
your ISP is actually your mobile carrier.... in your case, if you bought the exec from o2, then o2 are the isp
on an o2 exec, they are pre-configured for gprs or 3g internet access out of the box on the o2 network......providing you have used a sim that has data facilities enabled.....just click on the internet explorer icon and it should connect automatically
if you are using someone else's sim (i think the exec comes sim unlocked) then you will need to maually create the connections for that mobile provider (start, settings, connections, add new connection)
www.filesaveas.com/gprs.htm is a good source for all the major mobile providers settings
if you are connecting via wifi, then that is governed by the wifi device.....in hotspots it generally is pay as you go (btopenzone, tzones etc) but obvioulsy a home it is just picking up your home wifi connection
hope this helps!
Thanks!
Thanks for your help! I can now connect to the internet! I used the 02 settings. Also discovered the joy of there being Wifi at the station when the trains were cancelled but wasn't able to log on as it didn't accept the phone number it asked for when selecting O2 as the provider for some reason. Haven't worked out how to get email yet either but that's my next challenge!
Thanks again

As I know, internet access is not available for O2 PAYG customer, it's only for pay monthly.
I got the same problem with O2 PAYG and everything was back to normal when I change the SIM card with O2 monthly or another PAYG (vodafone & t-mobile)
Thanks stones...........I've been in touch with O2 & they advised the same re the PAYG sim but didn't suggest another network. I should be able to get WAP sites with PAYG O2 but can't do that either at the moment.
I'm going to try one of the other networks
Thanks again

You are now ready to surf o2 pay as you go GPRS full internet, but you will not be able to use outlook and MSN. However, it's still OK. To open MSN you can download Agile messenger. To access your email, just use the web access. You can only use 5MB for free on O2 PAYG. After that you will be charged.
Thanks go gugi_sat who helped me to solve the problem:

No My Work Network on conections screen
Hi;
I also know that OS payg customers can access gprs - i did on my last phone (Sony P800) with no problems. But now on the 2020 i can access GPRS but can not get web pages.
I see your settings for my work network - - but I do not have my work network on the connections page... what you are saying seems to make sense as my problems seems to be a DNS or gateway issue..
But now, how do I get my work network onto the connections settup page? It was there, but somehow with the scrambling around that I have done to get conencted to GPRS it has gorne away :-(
Thanks;

Hi All
I Just updrade my MDA Compact to new T-Mobile ROM
(BB_Firmware_MDACompact_11300_121_11200) and now I cant switch the network card connection to "The internet". It's still on "Work"
It is in settings / Network Card
Additionally I can't reach the Internet through ActiveSync:
I can resolve server name, but ping return "bad gateway".
At the same time I sync my items from MS Outlook with no problem and I can connect to the Internet by GPRS
It is spossible, that new rom is not a reason for that, but I couldn't check it now.
Any Idea?
Woke up in the morning and found MDA unable to connect via GPRS... keeps trying but cant connect.
-Checked ALL the settings
-Soft Reset/ Took Battery Out/ Took sim card out
-Hard reset
WILL NOT CONNECT TO GPRS
but connects to the net and am able to connect and check mail when connected to my PC via active sync...
can someone explain this to me...
T-mobile MDA support told me to have sim card tested at local store in another device...
please help
i would check if settings->connections->connections->advanced->select network
was set to my ips or something to that effect
could be that your isp use it's name as setting or something
if it's set to my network or something like that it will only use activesync as connection
it's set to Tmobile data....
I've got the same trouble with my HERMES200...
my operator is Tele2 Russia
other operators work fine
just switching apn from internet.tele2.ru to other right for oher operator...
If there hidden registry keys for modem configuration?
P.S. icq clients are working!!! and some sites like www.yandex.ru & tele2.ru
its very strange...
on other phones my simcard works great with gprs!
P.P.S. Sorry for my english
