Hello All...I know this isnt quite the right forum for this question... but... bear with me anyway and please try to help.
Been going nuts trying to figure this out for the last 4 days. I'm trying to setup a dial up networking connection on my 7070. I think I've managed to narrow down the problem to the actual connection number. I'm in the UAE, where there is only ONE ISP, Etisalat. They have a uniqu number access number which can be used anywhere in the country, without any access code. The number is a non geographic number (liek 0845 in the UK) without any dialling code, - 4004444. The problem is, the imate's dialup setup screen has three separate field for Country code, Dialling Code and phone number, and you have to fill in values for atleast the country code (which is +971) and the telephone number. If you leave the country code blank, sometimes, the phone doenst let u save the connection settings, others, it arbitrarily adds 0 as the conntry code. As a test, I dialled 4004444 on the mobile, and I heard the familiar modem beeps, then I tried +9714004444, the phone doenst do anything, no connection attempt can be heard.
So, basicaly, If I enter +971 in the country code, I know the phone wouldn't connect, If i leave it blank, the phoen would automatically add 0 as the value.
I've tried both and whenever I try to connect to the net, I get a msg saying unable to connect. as a further test, I modified the dialup connection settings to my home number, i.e. +971 for country code, 2 for Dialling code, and 62XXXX for the phone number, then when I tried accessing a webpage, my home phone started ringing.
I've checked with our sole ISP and they say that is the only access number they have.
Does anyone know a way around this?. Is there a registry key which i can modify to have just 4004444 as the number, without the prefix country and city code.??.
Further, I know dialup netwoking works on out GSM network (and more specifically, my GSM Sim) becuse i used to have a SE T610 before and I used to check my POP emails on it using the same network settings.
