Apologies if this has already been posted, but I have not found the info anywhere else on the board....
Enabling MMS and Wap browsing functionality on the 6600:
The two vital pieces of missing information are the "proxy ip address" and the port number of the proxy.
I had guessed correctly that 212.183.137.012 was the proxy address (the same as the old "wap gateway" ip address used in all pre-wap 2.0 phones), but how could I have guessed that the correct port number is 8799 ?
With this information I was able to configure GPRS access points for Wap browsing and MMS messaging - both now work - Finally !
The info. was originally posted in the alt.cellular.nokia Usenet group

Following on from my previous post, here are the details of my three GPRS Access Points needed to unlock all the 6600's functionality on Vodafone UK contract. Note that you must have had your sim-card data / gprs AND MMS enabled by Vodafone before this will work. Enjoy !
