Help!

I have a T610 on an O2 Prepaid tariff. I've set it up using the tool at http://www.o2.co.uk/productsservices/ota2/input1/0,,181,00.html and can access the internet from the phone.

But I'm having real problems configuring my IPAQ 4150 to use the GPRS connection.

On the 4150 I've set up a new modem connection as follows....

Modem... Bluetooth Dialup Modem
Number... *99***2# (2 is the CID on the T610)
User name... payandgo
password... password

All other settings are default.

When I use IE, I get a 'connecting' message (on both devices) followed after a couple of minutes by 'failed to connect' on the T610?

Have I got the right settings? Am I missing a step? Or is it just not possible on a prepaid tariff?

hi there, yh i am in the exact same position as you are, just cant get the damn thing to work, but i no its because of the setting are incorrect

then again the 02 customer are so damn shit helpfull and so damn rude, lol i had so many fights with them, they told me that they have spoken to data department and they say that it wont work coz i am on pay as you go, which is pure bullshit bcoz i use it on my laptop and it works over bluetooth just fine and i used up 177mb and still going.

From looking at other forums, seems like no-one has got this cracked!

Also, just had note from O2 Customer Services saying that this service isn't available on PAYG, only on Pay Monthly - so back to the shop goes the O2 kit then!

Does anyone use a pay as you go tariff from any other network to connect their 4150 to GPRS? (I'm mainly wanting to use TomTom Traffic so usage is low and I don't want a monthly rental)

Which network do you use and which handset?
