ok considerin a certain member took time to help me on this same topic,i feel i should make the effort to help another member....ok right!,now ive got the computer in front of me ill try and run u thru the setup process....
first u need to have the 193.113.200.195 port 8080 setting in ur p800 in the INTERNET not wap account and u must b using internet accounts and not wap accounts...
u need to pair the fone and pc up via bluetooth,ive set my bluetooth to ALWAYS RECIEVE...
once the pc has assigned incomin and outgoin ports for bluetooth u should then...
on ur pc open control panel and start network connections...
click file and new connection...
the wizzard should start,leave it on connect2internet and click next and select set up my connection manually...
ok next screen select the dial up option and click next...
type in wotever u like here and click next...
now u need 2put in a dial up number i use *99# it will dial wotever internet account that ur using on ur p800....next...
theres a variety of user names and passwords u can use here but i use o2wap as user and password as password..ok that bits finished...
go back to the control panel and open internet options and click on connections,select ur newly inputted account and u should go into the settings of that account,where its got the proxy server bit tick use proxy server and enter 193.113.200.195 port 8080....
those are the settings i have...
when u connect make sure ur gprs is off the pc will start it,and u should have ure bluetooth on p800 set to ON or discoverable,u may need to toggle these if u get an already in use error message when connecting..
like i said these are the settings i use so i cant gaurantee that exact config will work for u,but the basic settings are there so u may need to mess about with them abit...
good luck and let me kno how u get on.

yeah it does have a habit of droppin the connection especially at the weekend cos its o2 wap!wot do expect!its gets busy at certain times and it will cut u off and its hard to get connected again for a couple of hours,but most times i dont have a problem,its not great internet but its free and if u dont have a landline then its better then nowt.....anyways the info is there if anyone else needs it.
