Yep, thats the Vodafone PAYT settings. I haven't tried my Vodafone PAYT SIM for ages but it was working OK last time I used it. I'll set it up on my SPV again tomorrow to make sure.

You have definately set the Internet Connection to Vodafone GPRS and are using http:// in all your Internet addresses ? You should be able to connect to all Internet & wap sites using HTTP.

Maybe try deleteing ALL existing GPRS data (including Orange) and re-creating the Vodafone data.

Hi StuntMonkey

This morning I blew the cobwebs of my Vodafone PAYT SIM, stuck it in my SPV, setup GPRS and it worked :lol: Not sure why yours is failing :?

Do you get a top centre G displayed when your phone is switched on ? If not then GPRS needs activated on your account.

If you do get the centre G then make sure that the APN is pp.vodafone.co.uk and not pp.vodaphone.co.uk

To get GPRS working all I did was create a GPRS connection.

Password: wap

In Data Connections set 'Internet Connection: Vodafone GPRS'

In Internet Explorer set 'Select Network: The Internet' (you can also untick auto detect settings)

You should then be able to access internet sites i.e http://www.google.com

Note: you probably won't be able to access vodafone live site with the SPV

If it still won't work then you could try asking Vodafone CS to re-activate GPRS on your account.

Thanks for checking yours out. I have had my SIM card for close to 4 years now so it's possible GPRS is not enabled. I will again recheck all the settings and give it another go as soon as I get some more credit.

I'm temped to just get a new E200 on Orange contract so at least I can use my phone to it's fullest capabilities.
