I think you need some clearer information about WAP. The info you downloaded from the

website is for a public WAP gateway, not a service provider. Whichever way you connect to WAP, either through a GSM dial-up, or by connecting via GPRS, your service provider, in your case, BT Genie, will have it's own WAP gateway, but these are often limited to only allow small ammounts of data transfer at a time, which is why you can't download large items like themes and screensavers.

You don't have to use their gateway. Try this:

WAP Services>
Options>
WAP profiles>
Add profile?>
Call it Halebop>
Connect using> (choose the data account you use to connect to WAP)
IP address 194.237.106.73
WAP Services>
Select profile> (select Halebop) This may be the part you missed out before with the

settings.
Begin using WAP

I currently use Halebop, but would like to know if anyone knows of a gateway that allows files of 37KB or more to be downloaded.

See this thread for more info:
