I thought the operators had the same GPRS settings regardless of handset.

Have you tried a search for the GPRS repositry?

Hi rizasli

I found some Ufone settings on this site http://www.ufone.com/gprsconfiginfo.htm :) I noticed that there are different Access Points Names for different regions so hopefully your provider gave you the right settings.

I have put some information together and used the Post Paid APN's as an example. You will need to change these APN's to match the APN's created on your account by the network provider.

APN For Post Paid: ufone.piinternet or ufone.piwap

APN For Islamabad Prepaid Customers: ufone.wap or ufone.internet

APN For Lahore Prepaid Customers: ufone.plinternet or ufone.plwap

APN For Karachi Prepaid Customers: ufone.pkinternet or ufone.pkwap

Goto Internet Explorer Menu-Option-Connections and tick 'Automatically detect settings'

Goto Programs - Settings - Data Connections

Menu - Edit connections

Create GPRS connection for the Internet service

Description: GPRS Internet

Connects to: The Internet

Access point: ufone.internet

User name: ufone

Password: ufone

Primary DNS:

Secondary DNS:

IP address:

In data connections make 'Internet Connection: GPRS Internet'

IF you have subscribed to the Ufone Internet service then you should now be able to access all WEB sites. Try accessing http://www.google.com

Next create a proxy server connection

Programs - Settings - Data Connections

Menu - Edit connections

Create proxy connection

Description: WAP proxy

Connects from: The Internet

Connects to: WAP network

Proxy (name:port): 172.016.013.026

Type: WAP

Username: blank

Password: blank

Create GPRS connection for WAP service

(this APN may be restricted to WML pages)

Description: GPRS WAP

Connects to: The Internet

Access point: ufone.wap

User name: ufone

Password: ufone

Primary DNS: 0.0.0.0

Secondary DNS: 0.0.0.0

IP address:

In data connections make 'WAP connection: GPRS WAP'

Try accessing wsp://www.google.com/wml

Ufone WAP homesite is wsp://wap.ufone.com

Good luck :D
