Orange PAYG GPRS Help!

Hello,

I'm trying to use a new Orange PAYG SIM in my MDA Vario / SPVM3100
PDA.

The GPRS Settings I have entered are:
APN address: orangeinternet
Username: [blank]
Password [blank]
HTTP Proxy: 192.168.071.035:8080
WAP Proxy: 192.168.071.035:9201

I can connect to GPRS, however, when I browse the internet, e.g.
http://wap.orange.co.uk I get a "Page Not Found" error, which looks
like a DNS problem.

Any thoughts / pointers would be greatly appreciated!

David

The proxys are blank on my 6230. Try that, they should be automatic.

Perhaps "orange" branded or supplied phones have some GPRS settings
hard coded, and becasue I'm using a T-Mobile supplied PDA it needs more
settings??

For refrence the PDA I have is marketed by T-Mobile as the MDA Vario,
by Or as the XDA Mini S and also as the iMate K-Jam, and it's still
offline with Orange...

OK, it's working for interenet and POP3 email, seamlessly roaming
between WiFi & GPRS, with WiFi preferred

For refrence, the GPRS settings I used were:

Access point name field: orangeinternet
Username: orange
Password: orange

As sugested no proxy address was required
