Need a little help with the Sun prepaid sim that I bought. I previously had another Sun prepaid sim which I used for browsing. I "ruined" that simcard when I tried to use it in a micro dual simcard holder. I accidentally cut too much of it. I got the micro dual simcard holder to work for my K700 but I ruined my Sun simcard so I bought another one. My mistake was that I erased the gprs settings on my phone.
I "activated" gprs by sending "ACTIVATE" to 2300. I tried using the settings I got from "the mall" and also the one from Sony Ericsson and also the settings suggested here but I still couldn't browse. I got the mms to work though.
I've tried using both "wap" and "minternet" as the apn but still couldn't get it to work. Sun's customer service wasn't any help as they replied that wap was still in the testing phase and was not available. Any ideas why I can't connect?

@ dinky
the settings found in ericsson site is correct. (or use this one...i.p.address: 192.168.164.21)
that should work.
the problem is, network congestion... you'll surely be able to browse between 1 am to 8am. sometimes, if lucky enough, you may be able to browse any time of the day but hell slow.

@ex_crusader thanks. That's the same IP address from the settings I got from "the mall" but I still couldn't get it to work. I will try to connect in the wee hours as you suggested. Hope it works out. By the way, what apn should I use, wap or minternet?

use the wap apn, for most of the sun subrscribers here claim that it is free of charge, while minternet is charged 25cents/kb, furthermore, i dont think minternet still works, correct me if i'm wrong.

I was able to connect! But it really was rather slow. I used wap as apn thanks @ex_crusader!
Has anyone been able to set up their email client using sun cellular? I tried to connect using the account I used for browsing but "connection failed". Any ideas?

e-mail client works fine..
you have to take in to consideration the correct settings.. and also your e-mail provider... (hotpop is ok, and others... i dont know about yahoo). and lastly, input the DNS address of Sun which can be found in sun's website..
