hmm Gateway IP: should be provided by your phone company.

also. you have username and password filled in? sure you are to do that? My settings are

Username: "empty"
Password prompt: No
Password: "empty"

And what about "homepage?" filled that out? Not sure if you need to though 🙄

I have 2 acces WAP access point for email, the operation times out. So i made a new access point (the one posted above) for email, because someone used that settings in a other forum. I thought it worked, but after i disconnected bluetooth with my pc it didnt work anymore. It sais gprs not availeble. WAP and MMS do work and they also use GPRS. 😕
