Gripes with Vario 3 as a Modem


Recommended Posts

Posted

I'm using my MDA Vario 3 as a wired modem for my laptop and it appears that T-mobile are using some sort of image caching to compress files before they're served. I was just wondering if there's a way around this, as ive got HSDPA coverage where I use my phone and am not worried about transfer speed. It makes pages look terrible as the compression is often so high!

Also, I can't seem to connect to MSN/Live Messenger (or whatever it's called nowadays), always comes up with a problem with the connection error. Im guessing the ports been blocked so again just looking for a workaround. Does anyone know of any?

Just out of interest are you signed up for the pro wnw tariff that permits tethering?

To get around the compression, use a proxy perhaps?

With regards to messenger, should work fine if you have a relevant WnW service to support it?

I'm just using the standard WnW service, seems to work fine allowing me to use my phone as a modem, as was the case when I used my N73 as a modem for months with the same package...

It's relatively light useage so Im guessing that's why tmobile don't mind and haven't blocked it?
