hi there,

ive just got a orange mpx200 sim free and im using it on a t-mobile contract, ive tried all the settings and looked everywhere but i just cant seem to get the gprs working, it goes to connect but after a short while of waiting i get an error saying

"Unable to connect, Verify you have network coverage and try again"

ive got the CSD wap working but i have 100mb of gprs for £10 that i would like to use,

has anyone got an orange mpx200 working on t-mobile uk gprs? if so any help would be greatly apperciated

thank you

Have you managed to connect to GPRS on any other phone with your SIM? You may have the same problem as Orange SPV users had at the start, even though we had asked for the GPRS pack to be added to the account they hadn't actually activated on the SIM.

ive been able to connect on my p800 just before it broke and up till a few days ago i was using a gd87 which connected to gprs, do you think its worth getting a new sim card? or is there anything else i can do? im kinda stuck on what to do, also thank you for the reply,

If the SIM card has worked with GPRS before then it still should. If you have tried these settings and they don't work perhaps you should contact T-mobile and see if they have any advice.

(taken from the GPRS repositry thread in the article forum, if they work thank Syvwlch)

ive followed all of that and now im getting the error " Verify your dial up or proxy settings are correct, and try again,

i use to have a proxy setting in there for the gprs for t-mobile off another guide ive copied, things just seem to get from worse to bad,

the staff at t-mobile wont show a sign of help once youve told them you dont have a phone that was orignally on there official list,

thank you for all your help im really grateful, i really hope i can get the phone to work on gprs, Wap CSD is gonna cost me alot

thank you

Hi thebeagle

I've just read that you're still working on the t-mobile GPRS settings so I've put some info together that will hopefully help [-o:)

1. First goto Internet Explorer, Menu-Options-Connections and tick 'Auto detect settings'.

2. Create a GPRS connection for the Internet over GPRS service.

Programs - Settings - Data Conenctions

Menu - Edit Connections

Create GPRS connection

Description: T-mobile Internet

Connects to: The Internet

Access point: general.t-mobile.uk

User name: user

Password: one2one

Primary DNS: 0.0.0.0

Secondary DNS: 0.0.0.0

IP address: (blank)

Programs- Settings - Data Connections

Internet connection=T-mobile Internet

If T-mobile has activated the internet service then you should be able to access ALL sites (HTML&WML) using HTTP. (i.e http://www.google.com)

If it fails to connect then the APN,username & password will need to be confirmed with T-mobile as it may have changed since these were last posted on the net.

If you have the GPRS internet service (with 100MB inclusive) then you probably don't need the GPRS & CSD WAP connections although you could still want it to access any WAP sites which refuse to work via the internet connection.

3. Create a GPRS, CSD & proxy connections for WAP service

Programs - Settings - Data Conenctions

Menu - Edit Connections

Create proxy connection

Description: T-mobile proxy

Connects from: The Internet

Connects to: WAP network

Proxy (name:port): 149.254.1.10

Type: WAP

Username: blank

Password: blank

Create GPRS connection.

Description: T-mobile WAP

Connects to: The Internet

Access point: general.t-mobile.uk

User name: user

Password: wap

Primary DNS: 0.0.0.0

Secondary DNS: 0.0.0.0

IP address: (blank)

Create Dial Up WAP Connection

Description: T-mobile CSD

Connects to: The Internet

Country code: 44

Dialling code: 7953

Phone number: 968999

Username: user

Password: wap

Domain: (blank)

Programs- Settings - Data Connections

For the WAP connection access all sites using WSP (i.e wsp://www.google.com/wml)

MMS settings

thank you for the help, im still having problems connecting, im still getting the error "unable to connect, verify you have network coverage and try again,

im going to call t-mobile tomorrow morning and confirm the APN, username and password and if there is a change ill let you know,

thank you again for all your help,

by the way WAP CSD is working fine that will have to do for the time being but its costly!

Hi,

Thank you so much - for the past 4 days I have been trying everything to connect my smartphone to the internet, Today I followed your instructions and now it works. I am eternally grateful.

The t-mobile staff didn't have a clue - and didn't really want to know!

Once again thank you
