Go to:

http://ota.o2.co.uk/O2UK/index.jsp

and select P800 and your mobile number.

The correct GPRS settings will be sent OTA via SMS.

They will be saved in the Auto Setup folder under the Messages menu.

Just open it and save/install.

Although if you are on monthly tariff try the following manually instead:

Username: username OR mobileweb
Password: password
Address: mobile.o2.co.uk
Primary DNS: 193.113.200.200
Secondary DNS: 193.113.200.201

With WAP you can use the O2 WAP Internet account & WAP Profile/Account, but that depends how much you will pay for.

O2 WAP Internet Account:
Username: o2wap
Password: password
Adddress: wap.o2.co.uk

O2 WAP Account:
Select connection to the above Internet Account
Proxy tick box marked
Address: 193.113.200.195
No need for Username or Password here

The internal browser will operate on this WAP account and will connect to WAP & most html sites.
Selecting mobile.o2.co.uk Internet Account & Preferred WAP Account tick box unmarked only html sites can be accessed - Opera browser also requires this connection.

so ure saying i need another account???

it all seems fine, i can access pages like wap.google.com and the like with no problem it seems... could you explain what you mean? thanks.


EDIT:

this phone is causing me more stress that me bloody exams lol...

can someone please please please just tell me what accounts i need... what settings for those accounts and if it all comes under the £2.35/MB bracket that ive been told of

i want to be able to surf the net and send mms - for as cheap as possible...

if i actually knew of any good wap pages i might understand what ure all on about, but wap seems like the odd good site has wap version and thats it... not much use really when all the sites and forums i use are html...

so please just tell me which settings i need and when to use which account... i'm sure there are so many people out there who arent clear on all this either...

Just select the mobile.o2.co.uk Internet Account you manually set up & make sure the Preferred WAP Account tick box is unmarked. This arrangement will access full web pages only & not WAP.

My theory about the Orange PAYG GPRS is that they will only allow approved models to be used i.e. majority of Pay As You Go handsets as listed on their brochure.

Orange can't be bothered to test & approve the P800 for PAYG GPRS as they want customers to use their monthly SIM's only instead now.

There is no reason why GPRS on the P800 should not work with a PAYG SIM, Orange don't want it to work full stop, so seem to have deliberately disabled the GPRS feature.
This is done by recognising the model identity of the P800 by its TAC code (first 6 digits of the IMEI), when trying to logon to GPRS (even though it's shown attached).

Hopefully one day when the P800 reaches its twilight they will sell it as Pay As You Go and GPRS will work by then.

Completely p****d off with Orange about this and to add insult to injury from 1st May the new pay increases on PAYG. What's the point of Oftel in the first place?
