I'm trying to set my T610 up for accessing the web via GPRS, using a Bluetooth dongle.

Everything is working fine, and the Bluetooth dialup profile is enabled.

However, I have no idea what to type in to the phone number, username and password boxes of the Bluetooth dialup settings.

I have done a search and found some vague information on typing in a GPRS access number, but I haven't got a clue what mine is.

I would much appreciate a simple guide on finding out all the settings needed to browse with Bluetooth dialup over GPRS using T-Mobile UK.

Many thanks in advance

Ask your service provider for the username and password and your access number should be *99# This message was posted from a T610

Thanks, I now have the right number (*99***1#), username and password, but need to know the GPRS data APN of T-Mobile UK.

At the moment, the only GPRS data profile set in my phone is the default WAP one done via the SE configurator. Can anyone tell me the T-Mobile UK's DATA APN please?

Thank you very much, GPRS net over Bluetooth is now working perfectly!

Constant 6.4 kilobytes/second as well! Not too shabby

This seems an odd thread as you can't access GPRS over dialup! If the phone dials a number it is not GPRS!

It is, the "*99***1#" number that is dialled is simply a command for the phone to initiate a GPRS connection.

This is how a device uses a phone as a modem for access over GPRS.


Working really well here, really handy being able to use the net on my laptop at 6.5k/s, whilst on the train with my phone in my pocket

Now I get it!!!!!!!!!
But, this is not dialup. The 'number' you refer to is a command structure for modem access to GPRS (laptop-phone-GPRS or PDA-phone-GPRS etc). Dialup access is via the GSM network and is charged by time rather than on GPRS by data packets!
That's what caused my confusion!

I've tried this but cannot get gprs to connect.
It's never connected in fact - even just trying to use the T610s built in WAP browser over GPRS.

Using the following username and password:
user
mms
As recommended here:
a:href = "www.taniwha.org.uk/gprs.html"

Any ideas appreciated
