Guest snowy2003 Posted March 25, 2003 Report Posted March 25, 2003 Hi all, I have just bought an SPV without contract (£200 still sealed in box with camera, case, chargers, dock etc... complete with genuine receipt - is this a good price??). I wish to use my Orange PAYG SIM with it - THe PAYG sim works fine for GPRS in my T68 and I can browse WAP over GPRS no problem so the SIM is enabled. I can't get the GPRS set up on my SPV tho !! Any help would be MOST appreciated ! Cheers, Si.
Guest Coolboy1982 Posted March 25, 2003 Report Posted March 25, 2003 did you follow the instructions from this forum that explain all the settings?
Guest Coolboy1982 Posted March 25, 2003 Report Posted March 25, 2003 there is also some settings on coolsmartphone.com some of which are: GPRS Access Point = "orangeinternet". Primary DNS = 158.43.192.1 Secondary DNS = 158.43.128.1 MMS Access Point = "orangemms". Delete everything in all of the other boxes.

Guest cpt_andy Posted March 25, 2003 Report Posted March 25, 2003 I have been having the same problem for a couple of weeks now. The settings that you need for PAYG are (from Orange tech support): Connects to: The Internet Access Point: payginternet Username: Password: Primary DNS: 158.43.192.1 Secondary DNS: 158.43.128.1 IP Address: Notes: AP name must be in lowercase; Username, password and IP are left blank I have spoken with an Orange techie about the problem and he couldn't find anything wrong and said that it must be a temporary network problem. That was last week. I have yet to get back to them. Good Luck, and be sure to let us know if you manage to get it working. Cpt. Andy
Guest martinrouf Posted March 25, 2003 Report Posted March 25, 2003 i have gprs working on payg. check this out, - http://www.orange.co.uk/services/orange_gp...gprs_setup.html it gives you all of the settings. i was told by orange that the spv would not work on payg - heh, twats. to download the news homepage they charged me 17p.
Guest snowy2003 Posted March 26, 2003 Report Posted March 26, 2003 I have entered all the settings and the phone now seems to actually make a connection (G is constant in the Sig Strength meter). However, no matter where I try to surf I get the same page : alert - The page you are looking for cannot be found!!! Frustrating !!! My settings are as follows : In Internet Explorer : Menu/Options/Connections - Automatically Detect Settings is ticked and "Select Network" is set to "The Internet". -------------------------- In Programs/Settings/Data Connections : Internet Connection="Orange GPRS PAYG" Work Connection="Automatic" WAP Connection="Orange GPRS PAYG" Secure WAP connection="None Available" ------------------------- In Programs/Settings/Data Connections/Menu/Edit Connections/GPRS Connections/Orange GPRS PAYG : Connects To = "The Internet" Access Point = "payginternet" User Name = Password = Primary DNS="158.43.192.1" Secondary DNS="158.43.128.1" IP Address= Can anyone help please ?
Guest martinrouf Posted March 30, 2003 Report Posted March 30, 2003 right. i've got 2 connections. this is exactly how mine is set up. for 'Internet Connection' i have a connection called 'Orange GPRS' Connects To = "The Internet" Access Point = "payginternet" User Name = Password = Primary DNS="158.43.192.1" Secondary DNS="158.43.128.1" IP Address= for 'WAP connection' i have a connection called Orange Wap Connects To = "The Internet" Access Point = "paygwap" User Name = Password = Primary DNS="0.0.0.0" Secondary DNS="0.0.0.0" IP Address= that's working for me...
Guest martin Posted March 30, 2003 Report Posted March 30, 2003 Try WAP over GPRS service (paygwap) Create a GPRS connection for 'Orange WAP PAYG' In Data connections change WAP connection=Orange WAP PAYG Internet explorer - Select Network=WAP network (don't tick automatically detect settings - I get page not found if its ticked) create favourite for http://orange.multimedia/ (orange WAP home site) If the WAP over GPRS worked on the other phone, it should work here. Look for the G in the top right to indicate an active GPRS service. There could be a problem with the payginternet service for you particular sim ? When you have Select network=The internet, what URL's are you trying to connect to ?
