I've just got my hands on a TDK BlueM adapter for my Palm, and it's connecting fine to my T610 for dial up, sending SMS, etc, but I can't get it to connect to the net using GPRS using WebPro (v2.1).

It connects ok, but then sits there for about 3 minutes and comes back with:
"Communications error. Please check coverage, check URL, and try again [comm. 1]"

I'm on vodafone UK, and have full signal + GPRS coverage. I've tried it in a couple of different areas, and with different pages.

Any ideas? What settings do you use for Voda UK GPRS web browsing with a Palm? Vodafone are no help as usual!

A couple of extra things I've tried:
Dial-up to web over bluetooth - Webpro works ok
Dial-up to web over IrDa - Webpro works ok
GPRS to web over IrDa - Pages do not load
GPRS to web over bluetooth - Pages do not load
GPRS is definitely enabled - I can surf WAP pages over GPRS on my phone

It's wierd. The bluetooth adapter has a data transfer indicator light. When you dial up, the indicator is flashing away to indicate data transfer, and doesn't stop until the page is downloaded. With GPRS it flashes while it's connecting, then stops. It's as if once it's connected it stops transfering data accross. Any other ideas? Has anyone got the settings they use that actually work?

BTW: slattery69, that link didn't work. Where did you go on the voda site?
