Hi gurpal2000,

It sounds like you are trying to connect to your ISP via a dialup connection instead of using GPRS. If my assumption is correct then, you are dialing up your IPS via their phone number. If you really want to do that then ask your cell provider to enable “data” service on your account before using your cell phone as a modem. However, a lot of providers has dropped their data service for their GPRS service because “data” is a LOT slower and it cost more. What you really should do is setup your GPRS service and access your IPS via their home page (you may have trouble accessing your email account though).

WAP is a nice extra, but not needed, for the P800 because it understands html.

Opera is indeed a better browser.

Hope that helps,
AfF.

INterested in what you were saying about using a seperate ISP with the p800. I have just got my new p800 so am getting to grips with it, and you post about using tiscali has sparked off more questions than answer, i have read those other links too.
So can someone basically tell me what is the advantage of using a normal ISP on the p800 opposed to a GPRS package from Orange ( or whatever network your on )
Isnt it more expensive or slow to use a normal isp on the p800?

Can i use my AOL unlimited account =)

if you have any ideas please email me at:

or just copy and paste what your reply was and email me please.
