Problems
connecting
If you’re having
problems connecting to WAP, try the following advice:
- In order
to use WAP, you must have data services enabled on your account.
If you can’t connect, contact your network operator (e.g. o2, Orange,
Vodafone or T-Mobile),
and ask them to ensure that your SIM card is ‘data-enabled’. - If trying
to connect via GPRS, note that this is a different service to standard
dial-up WAP access. Again, contact your network operator to ensure
GPRS is enabled on your account. - Still having problems?
Double-check your settings are 100% correct. The UK settings for
the main network operators can be found on our WAP page. Alternatively,
try getting the settings sent to your handset using the Nokia
Configurator. - If you’re still having
problems, best bet is to ask in our forum
with details of handset type and error messages. Alternatively,
contact your network operator for help.
