SAVE ME!!! (from running up a huge phone bill)

[Guest 4N1L]

Afternoon Guys

Just need a bit of reassurance over this 3 months free Open Access promotion i've been given.

As i understand from reading other related threads the promotion only allows me to access WAP sites (whether it be through WAP or GPRS).

I think i have the correct settings to do this but i'm not too sure. In order to access WAP sites through a GPRS connection i have the following settings in Data Connection:

Internet Connection: Orange GPRS

Work Connection: None

WAP Connection: Orange WAP

Secure WAP: None

To make sure i can only access WAP sites i have the following settings in Internet Explorer

Auto Detect Settings: unticked box

Select Network: WAP Network

Does this sound right? Will these stop me inadvertently accessing sites which are not part of the promotion?

Thanks all!

That's correct 4NIL.

When setting IE to WAP network only, it will force the use the WAP connection which can be configured for WAP over GPRS (APN orangewap) or WAP over GSM. Both WAP connections are free to both Orange PAYG and Orange Contract (with open access).

If you check properties you will see that all pages are accessed using WSP (wireless Session Protocol) which is part of the WAP (Wireless Application Protocol).
