Drivers for Nokia D211 card

I guess Chazco is right. For instance the settings recommended by Connex-Vodaphone on their site are:
Connection string: AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","internet.connex.ro"
Phone no.: *99***1#
username : internet.connex.ro
password : connex
IP : server assigned
DNS : 193.230.161.3 si 193.230.161.4

Do these settings look like those of your providers?

Yes, they look the same. I'm contacting C:Amie to see if i can put the tutorial on HPCFactor. It covers entering all of those options.

I've PM'ed C:Amie, so should here back soon. I'll put it on my website if it cant go on HPCFactor, so you'll be able to access it anyway...

hey well i see your site in your profile. dont you want to change the "Interests" part?

I've updated it now, although i dont remeber actually typing that in in the first place

Still waiting for a reply from C:Amie (my website is running out of bandwidth quite fast, so i cant really put something with this many images there yet)

C:Amie is very busy these days, don't worry.

hmm, couldnt get the flash thing off your site (about answering exam questions lol)

I disabled it due to the bandwidth it used. I'll put a note up later about it.

Thats all very nice but does anybody got that Wireless LAN part to work with J720?

It works fine. I was in the local shopping complex (mall? loads of shops in one big building) and was in the eating area. Pulled out my 720 and turned the card on to use GPRS, but thought i'd just check for Wifi. Tapped easy connect wifi and was online in seconds. It also seems less power hungry than the Cisco card that came with it (Wifi not GPRS).

Thats one other point - if you are using this for GPRS be warned - it eats battery power up, since it can be transmitting data up to 5 miles back and forth, from that tiny internal transceiver.

yes works just fine

It wouldnt connect for me It tries and tries but no luck yet. But on laptop it works like a dream

strange. any error messages?

I have edited this together really quickly for you:
CESDH0035 - Guide to configuring the Nokia D211 for use with GPRS

Thanks to Chazco for sending the article along.

Great, thanks C:Amie, nice conversion to a static page. The interactive version will be on my website, but not until i've bought some more data transfer...

So, arlex you can now set up a connection - use APN: "internet.connex.ro" before trying to use custom dial strings though, just in case.
