Hey Luke, don't I know you from somewhere? The whole O2 proxy definately works, has done for ages. What exactly have you tried cos I know it works on my phone.

Listen to David He's a legend, I sold him my p800 after xmas and now small world he found me and helped me fix it, In the end I can only get the free gprs in opera, the settings are as follows

Internet Accounts:
-Account name: O2 WAP GPRS
-Conn. type: GPRS
-user name: payandgo
-password: Password
-Address: payandgo.o2.co.uk
-IP add. auto: Tick
-DNS add. auto: Tick
-Use Proxy: Tick
-Proxy add: 193.113.200.195
-Proxy port: 8080
-Enable PPP: Tick

any other settings leave the same

if you cant get it on the normal browser get opera then go to preferances and enter in the proxy settings as above, Thanks to all esp David he knwos what hes doing, this really does work I have it on mine but it only works in opera Cheers

well done.. but these settings have been around for the last five years! and there also in this thread
O2 PAYG free GPRS - works for me on p900!
they work fine in opera and the internal browser..

Ah true, but ive had problems with it, ive tried mutiple settings, but none have worked these are the first ive had that do, Ive jsut managed to get it to work in the standard browser, it would only connect with the normal wap, I had to delete this account as it would automatically set this one even if the gprs was set as prefered

so you were using a wap account?
wap is not free, that explains why you were being charged.

you can disable the option in wap accounts:


just untick the "use WAP account" option

I get wap free, I have a old genie sim where wap is free, it was when I was on gprs when it charged me to fix it aI also had to change the messaginhg gprs settings, the problesm is it seems to go slower then my wap is this normal?

I also have an old genie sim but i dont get free wap anymore??

what settings are you using?

Posted by Luke-the-magic-man
just the ones on my phone, go to o2.co.uk get settings then select wap, and select the p800, that seems to work for me

Does work Luke, i got a 07843 o2 sim, and the settings were already like that, all i had to do was convert the connection mode to proxy!!

Posted by Luke-the-magic-man
I know it works, I now get free gprs and have for a few days, is there anyway to get free wap, or is that asking to much?

Posted by ten18
theirs only one way... top up

Posted by rikesh
can someone explain how to set these on a 6230i?

all it says is 'connecting' for ages and nothing comes up. probably because i havent been able to set the ip address, since i cant find the option.

thanks very much!
