Here's a solution 2 get MSN working over O2 GPRS as well as IE. Set your IE proxy settings 2 use server 193.113.200.195 port 8080 urername mobileweb password password. Now open up MSN and set the proxy as an HTTP proxy with the same details as IE,but make the username payandgo.connect,sign in,and enjoy! This message was posted from a T68i

yea, it works fine for me, and no other methods have worked. takes around 30-40sec to actually sign in, but response times in convos are normal. however, haven't yet managed to receive or send a file using this, i expect it is down to the fact that other ports are required to send the files. not yet tried to receive webcam, presume it will be horribly jerky on that speed connection.

yea, you have to have the usernames as mobileweb for access and payandgo for MSN, or it wouldn't work.

lol, why the hell should you apologise for asking a question? lol. well, made a discovery couple of days ago that actually makes the answer more complicated than it seems.

i use "mobileweb" as my login for internet explorer, and can browse and download files for free (I would notice if I couldn't, my phone's shifted nearly 2gb since january )

in my first post i stated about using "payandgo" instead of "mobileweb". well now I seem to be able to login on "mobileweb" as well in MSN Messenger. However, regardless of which one i use for MSN, it does seem to charge me for this. This isn't the drawback it seems to be though, as the amount of traffic from MSN is tiny, and I have only used pence in the several days I have been using it.

make of that what you will (or can!). the whole thing seems a bit odd, and I can't understand it, since username, password, address and port are all the same, but only MSN is charged. I suppose they could be deliberately allowing the traffic, reading the headers and charging for MSN, but then I figured, surely they'd just open up the normal MSN port?

Still works for me, so I'm not complaining. Feel free to PM me if you've got any questions. Good luck getting it working!
