> New O2 GPRS, what is it?
Bookmark topic
Ok, has anyone on O2 seen that o2 Alive or O2 Action or whatever the hell it's called. It's basically the free GPRS until Feb 2004.
Anyway, I updated my settings earlier today and I see that you can now use the internet. To some extent.
HTML pages seem to load (eg,
http://www.penny-arcade.com works,
http://msn.mobile.com works as do a lot of others) when using the SE browser but if I try to use Opera nothing loads. I just went to the Agile Messenger site with the p800 browser, downloaded the app fine, all on my p800 yet when I try to connect Agile Messenger it won't
so what exactly is this psuedo-internet access O2 are providing?
[edit] Oops, didn't know this had been moved, I thought my dodgy connection had messed up posting. Although it might be a p800 problem as one browser works and the other doesn't.

Your phone browser identifies itself as a phone, so you're allowed to use it. Opera identifies itself as opera, which offer a full gprs data subscription to work. Unles you can somehow change operas id, which you can do on a pc. I don't know how to though. It involves ad protection software or something.

Actually, checking the other forum there is a way to make Opera work.
go to the Internet Accounts setup, Choose O2 WAP GPRS and the advanced tab.
Select the proxy server option and enter:
Server: 193.113.200.195
Port: 8080
Opera should work now, does for me. Still can't get Agile Messenger to work though, any suggestions.

For Opera I use the full web based O2 GPRS service. I was not aware the WAP gateway would work with HTML pages. I know that O2 GPRS , unlike WAP GPRS, is not free.
