o2 payg internet and mms settings

Hi,

I remember reading a post in which someone described his frustration
at setting up and O2 PAYG phone to use MMS and internet. IIRC the
problem was that o2 say that the password is "password" but in fact it
is something like "PAYG" and the access point name is different too.
I'm sure I kept a copy of this post for future reference but now that
I need it, I cannot find it. Can anyone help?

TIA

Everywhere I looked when I when I was setting up my iphone PAYG had
differing answers but, this works for me:

APN: payandgo.o2.co.uk
Username: vertigo
Password: Password
MMSC: http:/mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk
MMS Proxy:193.113.200.195:8080

Have you tried entering your number (in the "Mobile phone settings" box) on
the O2 site?
