Guest martin Posted June 23, 2003 Report Posted June 23, 2003 the offer says until 31st of august. i can access internet using gprs and its the normal paygo price. what do i do to get for free? this page has some info http://www.orange.co.uk/talkplans/pay_as_you_go.html i have done the OTA unlock and the paygo sim is the "simple connection" pay as you go pack . I sounds like the WAP promotion for PAYG might only be free for access to the Orange WAP homesite (and for all services contained within). I expect that you'll still have to pay for all other WAP and internet usage via GPRS. CS should be able to confirm this.

Guest evilminky Posted June 23, 2003 Report Posted June 23, 2003 so whats the address of the orange wap site?
Guest evilminky Posted June 23, 2003 Report Posted June 23, 2003 ok so i should be keeping the same gprs settings that i used to get pay as you go internet that charged me and just visiting orange wap sites like wap.orange.co.uk? i cant access it at the mo i get unable to place call has anyone else done it? i have no credit by the way but i dont see how this could affect it.
Guest martin Posted June 23, 2003 Report Posted June 23, 2003 Make sure your GPRS access points are payginternet and paygwap.
Guest evilminky Posted June 23, 2003 Report Posted June 23, 2003 thanks still no luck the orange gprs access point is payginternet and orange wap paygwap?
Guest evilminky Posted June 23, 2003 Report Posted June 23, 2003 ok i cant even connect to the wsp://orange.multimedia/ site when using pass through connector which allows me to access the normal sites in my phones favourites.
Guest martin Posted June 24, 2003 Report Posted June 24, 2003 evilminky Note sure where its going wrong :? I would get the Internet/WAP connectiions over GPRS working for the phone first and then add the option of through connection to the PC Try this Settings for GPRS WEB Description: Orange GPRS The Internet, payginternet Orange WAP proxy settings. Descreition: Orange WAP proxy The Internet ,WAP network, 192.168.71.35, WAP Settings for GPRS WAP.

Guest evilminky Posted June 24, 2003 Report Posted June 24, 2003 i have previously got the internet to work on the phone on its own but just not with wap. also i cannot find the gsm dialup settings on the phone just orange CSD wap
Guest cpt_andy Posted June 24, 2003 Report Posted June 24, 2003 I seem to have a similar problem - GRPS Internet works fine (but costs money), CSD WAP works fine (is free, but slow), but GPRS WAP does not work (and should be free). When set to use GPRS WAP, PIE just hangs when 'Dialing...'. Any ideas? CSD is too slow for me :s Cpt. Andy
Guest martin Posted June 24, 2003 Report Posted June 24, 2003 I seem to have a similar problem - GRPS Internet works fine (but costs money), CSD WAP works fine (is free, but slow), but GPRS WAP does not work (and should be free). When set to use GPRS WAP, PIE just hangs when 'Dialing...'. What do you mean by set GPRS to WAP ? Have you created the WAP GRPS connection and WAP proxy settings ? Have you got 'auto detect settings' ticked in Internet explorer ? What WAP address are you to connect to ? Also I assume your Orange.
Guest martin Posted June 24, 2003 Report Posted June 24, 2003 i have previously got the internet to work on the phone on its own but just not with wap.You need a WAP browser to view WML pages. If you were using the Internet browser on the PC then you will only be able to view HTML pages. also i cannot find the gsm dialup settings on the phone just orange CSD wap Orange CSD wap is a GSM dialup for the WAP service. These settings for WAP access should definately work. Make 'WAP connection=Orange WAP or Orange CSD' in data connection. Make 'Select Network=WAP Network' and untick 'auto detect settings' Access wsp://orange.multimedia from the SPV internet explorer.
Guest evilminky Posted June 25, 2003 Report Posted June 25, 2003 hmmmmmm tried quite a few times always get unable to place call. could it be something to do with me not having credit even though its free. for example to use the free texts in text saver u need to have credit. when i say ive used the internet on the phone before i mean completely through the phones modem and not with a pc.when i get some credit ill see what happens. cheers for the help.... martin have u used the free wap with these settings?
Guest cpt_andy Posted June 25, 2003 Report Posted June 25, 2003 What do you mean by set GPRS to WAP ?'set to use GPRS WAP' - I set PIE to connect through 'WAP network', with 'WAP connection' set to 'GPRS WAP'. Have you created the WAP GRPS connection and WAP proxy settings ? My settings were exactly as in your post, except my proxy had a port number on the end, although it doesn't seem to make much difference. Have you got 'auto detect settings' ticked in Internet explorer ?No, I wanted to force to to connect though WAP network (as it is free) What WAP address are you to connect to ? Can't remember the address, but it is the O one in the favorites. Also I assume your Orange. Yes :lol: Thanks for your time with this :D Cpt. Andy
Guest martin Posted June 25, 2003 Report Posted June 25, 2003 The original O favourites are smartphone specific and are not WAP sites. You will need to create a new favourite with address wsp://orange.multimedia
Guest evilminky Posted June 25, 2003 Report Posted June 25, 2003 guess what happened when i got some credit........ free wap sorry bout the confusion!!!
Guest martin Posted June 25, 2003 Report Posted June 25, 2003 Since we are on about free WAP, try this for yahoo WAP messenger :lol: (time to buy a keyboard I think) Untick 'auto detect settings' and make 'Select Network=WAP Network'. Install WebWapSelect V1.1 and change type to WAP (mode WAP:Nokia 7650). Reset Phone. Goto Address wsp://wap.yahoo.com Enter country and then messenger.
Guest evilminky Posted June 25, 2003 Report Posted June 25, 2003 ok found it ... in french so install go to the ap press left soft key select wap then exit and reboot phone? what does this ap actually do ?ok found it ... in french so install go to the ap press left soft key select wap then exit and reboot phone? what does this ap actually do ?
Guest martin Posted June 25, 2003 Report Posted June 25, 2003 I think it gives the SPV the identity of another WAP device and therefore it allows greater compatability with some WAP sites.
Guest cpt_andy Posted June 26, 2003 Report Posted June 26, 2003 The original O favourites are smartphone specific and are not WAP sites. You will need to create a new favourite with address wsp://orange.multimediaThat is the favorite I was referring to. Cpt. Andy
Guest martin Posted June 26, 2003 Report Posted June 26, 2003 Andy. If you are adding the port number to your proxy settings then I assume you have 192.168.71.35:9201. Port 9203 gets stuck in dialling. and if You have the following 'Auto detect' unticked and WAP network selected in IE. WAP 'Network: Orange WAP' in data connections Orange WAP with APN paygwap and points to 'The Internet'. (I assume you are PAYG). and if you are using wsp:// in the address It should work :?
Guest cpt_andy Posted June 27, 2003 Report Posted June 27, 2003 Cheers, martin! ;) It seems that it was that port that was the problem. Which is weird as I had been using settings send to me by Orange Support :s. Anyway, sorted now :) Cpt. Andy
