Can somebody post the reccomended settings for GPRS data allowing internet access for checking 3rd party mail server and 3rd party hosts for web access and third party messengers. The settings that vodafone sent me are for a Analogue dial-up!!! Which as you know is charged per second.

I've posted this many times but I'll do it again...

go to control panel, connections, internet accounts, new. Give it an account name of Vodafone internet or something and ensure connection type is GPRS. Click on advanced and type internet into the address field. you can also click on the "username and password required" checkbox and then enter web into both username and password fields but I don't use those and it works fine for me and always has done ever since I first started using Vodafone GPRS when they introduced it.

click done and then done again and you have created your internet/email data GPRS account

for email, all the settings will be as per your pc except for the outgoing server address which should be set to smtp.vizzavi.co.uk

if opera or email doesn't work its possible you may need to call Vodafone to enable the GPRS internet on your account. Unfortunately what they call internet is really just WAP and that is not the same thing but I never did figure out what they call real internet, possibly mobile internet or something

Hi all,

have now managed to connect using Opera as I am now using the 'VF Contract Internet' profile.

I can connect to AOL and Yahoo on Agile Messenger, but still no luck trying to connect to MSN.

Any ideas? Do I need to have the 'Content Control' lifted from my Voda account?

Any help, greatly appreciated

litfoo

Guy H,

As you said, 'content control' has been lifted.

MSN Messenger working fine on Agile Messenger now


Cheers
