just use the default ir modem (Standard Ir Phone Modem or something like that) not P800 IR modem when creating new connection.

the wizzard had no use,never worked for me! If u connect using internet GPRS account (not wap) u still need to dial a number(mine is *99#),get it from your provider! Also you must disable on pc com ports and ir for pc suite connection before trying to connect to modem.Also when the modem is detected go to properties and put extra initialization commands,also from your provider.Is not easy but is worth it when you are travelling!
Good luck and keep me posted!

you have to disable all,just untick the boxes with com ports and ir to be able to use as a modem.Extra init.com. must be entered in modem properties,they are somewhere,just look for it! I use this: at+cgdcont=1,"ip","internet" ,you must replace internet with your internet gprs apn! Hope it works.
