Hi,

anyone know how to configure the GPRS on a Dell Axim PDA for a tesco mobile sim card?


Settings are:


Tesco-Mobile GPRS WAP settings:
Homepage: http://wap.tesco-mobile.com/
APN address (contract): prepay.tesco-mobile.com
Gateway (IP) address : 193.113.200.195
Username : tescowap
Password: password
Session type: Continuous / permanent
Port number: 9201
Authentication: Normal



I can get it to connect yet IE states "the page you are looking for cannot be found" after trying for a while.

I don't understand the "Gateway (IP) address : 193.113.200.195" but the rest seems ok.

I have exactly the same problem [connects but can't retrieve any pages]...I don't suppose anyone has managed to get it to work? If so, pls help!

Cheers

Paul

Ring customer support - they may have to enable the service. If not, they may give you a special code to dial with.

I emailed Tesco's customer support last year - they said that is was not possible with the Pay-As-You-Go service :( . I tried it again recently without joy - same problem.

I think you need an GPRS Internet service rather than GPRS WAP service - which is what they appear to not be providing.

Anyone else had any joy? Please!!!
