Hi all, I have gotten my V180 phone connected/installed on my laptop thanks to all of the wonderful help here Thank you! Now...when I try to use it as a modem to dial into work it wont let me connect. The Mobile Phone Tools shows Transmission disabled, and Reception disabled when my phone is connected. I do not have GPRS data plan or anything like that from cingular (my carrier) - is that the issue? Is there anything I can do to just use the phone as a analog dialup modem? Will "unlocking" the phone do this for me? Thanks in advance for any help I can get! Lothlor
Ok - Figured out what I needed to do and figured I should share it so it may help others: 1 - The V180 does not support analog modem mode (to dial into what number you want) appearently 2 - My plan does include "ad-hoc" internet access via GPRS (@ .04/KB I think) - your may be different... 3 - The default dialup connection to cingular GPRS that gets setup by the Mobil Phone Tools is for something else (not sure what) 4 - Finally, to connect via GPRS I had to use the following: Username: WAP@CINGULARGPRS.COM Password: CINGULAR1 Also - I got this info from here (and there are a lot of other connection settings in here as well): http://www.discusswireless.com/foru...orum_F51/Cingular_Carrier_Data_Settings_P838/ Hope that all helps someone else! THanks, Lothlor
