Has anyone gotten the s710a to connect to your computer and gotten EDGE data speeds from it? I used the Sony Mobile Networking Wizard and it wont connect. The settings i used are
phone number: *99***#
username: WAP@CINGULARGPRS.COM
password: CINGULAR1
apn: wap.cingular
CID: 01
any suggestions?
when I had the v551 i got it to work and it was cool so I cannot wait to get the s710a to work.
...
Try putting this in as the phone number, let me know how it goes.
*9***3#
...
*9***3# didnt work but I reinstalled my modem and it worked perfectly with *99***1#. It works great. I dont get EDGE data speeds (I go to school in Oklahoma...anyone know when its being rolled in??) but the GPRS works great.
...
Good to hear you got it, even though my info didn't help, it's important that you got it.
As for the EDGE, I have no idea. Have you checked Cingular's EDGE coverage maps?
...
yah, you forgot a number 1-3 when you stated what settings you were using. I have EDGE in my area and pull 80-90kbps surfing, 11-12KB/sec dl'ing stuff. browsing off of a cell phone is kinda weird, cause there is about a 800ms delay, and it seems load pages in big blocks. overall, it's not a bad experience, just kinda weird.
...
oh yeah, i just looked at my post and youre right...the number i actually use is *99***1#, thanks

How are you connecting to the phone? Bluetooth?
...
I first got it to work with infrared and then with bluetooth
...
Is this how you got it working???
-Pair your phone.
-On Bluetooth Neighborhood, discover, the device, then discover available services.
-One of the services the laptop will find is Dial-Up Networking. Right-click on the icon, then hit "Connect" on the context menu.
-If all is well, you will get the same DUN we used to see in the modem days. Fill in with User:ispda@cingulargprs.com
Password:CINGULAR1
Number:*99***3#
-Hit the Dial button.
...
sounds like someone needs windows xp service pack 2...
...
Sorry - i hit the button two quick... Did you install the Phone Monitor software? If so, when the phone has bluetooth on does the Phone Monitor see it?
I am hainvg an issue where the Phone Moniotr only sees the phone if I use IR
