ISP for XDA Exec?

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

Tmobile GPRS and Push Email :?:

Hi guys, I got the new SonyEricsson M600 and had the settings sent over from SonyEricsson website for the GPRS, I also added the another account setting from http://www.filesaveas.com/gprs.html. The activesync application was unable to hold a signal for more than 10 to 15 minutes and it would disconnect. I believe it might have something to do with the port numbers or proxy being used.
So if someone that has connected succefully to t-mobile uk and has push working without a glitch please advise on any settings.
Much appreciated.
P.s I also have an Orange contract and that has synced perfectly without a problem on activesync without any disconnects. :?:

QTek 9000 on 3 network anybody?

I recently changed to the 3 network from o2 and I'm having real serious problems with email.
I have subscribed to the internet10 add-on and I want to be able to use it primarily for checking emails, however mobile Outlook is not connecting to my 1and1 server. I have no problem with my o2 SIM (with the o2 GPRS connection settings) or WLAN, so I know my settings are correct.
I have no problem surfing the internet using mobile IE, so the connection is set up OK, I just can't check my emails, which is really all I want to do.
Does anybody have any experience with this? I have tried using the search function, but "3" and "three" are such generic terms I'm getting about a million hits...:-/
Also, I could really use the 3/Qtek 9000 ROM so I have all the relevant 3 software. If anyone has that I'd be very grateful too!
Thanks in advance.

Is there really nobody here that is using a QTek 9000 on 3...?

Are you getting web pages on the 3Services connection with the internet pack? I.e you can browse outside the 3 garden like get SMH. If you can and outlook is not working try another mail program or try pinging it from the command line to test connectivity. You can use the task manager if you have the Helmi rom it comes build in to ping your mailserver. Or try pocketTTy to telnet to your mail server on ports 25 and 110. If you cannot telnet it's possible that 3 blocks incoming and outgoing port 25 and 110 connections to stop the use of other mailservers. You could try the 3Netaccess connection which is the same as connecting the to the internet but that is charged at $4 per mb unless you sign up for one of the internet packs. If you find you can telnet try another mail program like flex Mail.
Good luck

ha I just noticed that your are from England. We have the same addon pack in Australia. You can try what I suggested but the access points would change.

Hey guys!
I also use the 3 network, but I live in Austria. The problem is, that in Austria Three doesn't support the Qtek 9000, so I don't have the original ROM. Is it posible that someone could send me this ROM via email or rapidshare?
I got most of the things (like MMS, Planet3, Email) to work, but I sill can not watch mobile TV...
Can you please help me with this MobileTV thing?

Vario II -- internet problems.

Hi all,
I have a T-Mobile MDA Vario II, and I cannot connect to the internet, or send and receive email. I can, however, connect to my wireless LAN.
My vario DOES connect to 3g (or shows it's connected) but I keep getting 'This page cannot be displayed' error while surfing.
Can anyone supply me with the correct settings I need to use to connect?
Thanks guys, and gals.

It's aknown problem with T-Mobile. It's been happening for around two weeks now with no sign of a resolution. T-Mobile can't be bothered to inform its customers but if you phone you'll be told to use GPRS.

All working for me, both GPRS and 3G.
Have you tried changing your dns servers?
Try 4.2.2.1 and 4.2.2.2

My Vario II was having the same problem.
Switched to GPRS and it worked. I then used the Fit4Cat program to disable HSDPA. This resulted in me falling back to 3G and everything working perfectly!
HSDPA was working fine for me since the Vario II was first launched but the last few weeks I've had no joy.
I might phone T-Mobile and see if HSDPA has been disabled on my account. If it has, then the sneaky swines must've disabled it.

Thanks guys, I'll give your sugestions a go today and report back.

No Internet connection

Hi All,
I'm new to all this stuff so please be nice to me
I've got a problem with some 838 pro's.
I've installed the Blackberry Connect software on them and they connect through to the BES but I cannot get an internet connection on them
I was told that the Blackberry Browser won't work but turning that off and using vfinternet.au (vodafone australia) doesn't seem to connect through either.
I'm not sure what else I can do as I don't have any experience with these things.
Is there anyone that could help me with this?
