Setting up
O2 WAP on a Series 60 handset

o2 SIMThis
page gives information on how to set up your phone for WAP access with
UK mobile phone operator O2
online

o2 offers up to 1000 free SMS messages and an inclusive
GPRS WAP allowance. We have settings for other UK network operators on
our WAP page.

To get WAP access, you need the following:

  1. An O2
    SIM card (which gives you free text messages and a WAP allowance)
  2. A Series
    60 handset and the built-in Wap browser (‘Services’ from the main
    menu)

You
need to decide whether you’re going to connect using a dial-up service,
or GPRS. All WAP handsets can cope with dial-up, and o2 online allow an
amount of free dial-up WAP access with their tariffs. GPRS offers an always-on
connection, and you’re charged for the amount you download, not the length
of time you’re online. For details of GPRS, see our GPRS
page
.

To set up o2 WAP
access, do the following:

  • Go to the
    "Services" application
  • Select Options
    | Settings | Default Access Point
  • Select Options
    | New Access Point | Use default settings
  • Enter the
    settings from the following table
  • Press
    ‘Back’ when complete. To access WAP, go to the ‘Services’ application
    and go to a WAP site. o2’s homepage is
    http://wap.o2.co.uk/

Using WAP

WAP on GoogleTo
use the WAP browser on your Series 60 handset, do the following:

  • From the Series 60 main menu,
    select "Services"
  • Assuming that you don’t have
    any WAP bookmarks set up, let’s set up Google’s WAP page as a bookmark
    and navigate to it
  • To go to Google, press ‘Options’,
    select ‘Bookmark manager > Add bookmark
  • Enter ‘Google’ as the name’,
    and the address of ‘http://www.google.com/’. Set the access point as
    ‘default’ and leave username & password blank. Press ‘Back’ to save.
  • Now, move to the Google bookmark,
    and press ‘Options > Download’

Assuming you’ve set up your WAP
settings correctly, you should be prompted to connect and access Google’s
search page over WAP

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.
