Try the IP 100.1.200.099

Posted by zusstin
you mean instead of "airtelgprs.com"?

Thanks,

Posted by niranjan007
Airtelgprs.com is the access point. Change the ip address to the said. Have you called customer care?

Posted by zusstin
had called customer care, but wouldnt help...

Which IP address should I change? Sorry - I am bad at these things...

Posted by amd1129

Zusstin, if you go town side, drop in to the Airtel Shoppie in Fort area.

Mostly Gaurav or some other GPRS specialist should fix your thing.

As for tweaking your a/c to benifit from Airtel's loophole. Can be done later.
First get comfy with the basics !

Once it opens any site it is fast and ok. But it doesnt open easily lol.

@Sailaab,

Thanks for the note. will check it out when am @fort.

Waise, If I use AirTel LIVE to go to their 'Live' site , it works...trouble is AirTel GRPS wont work (which is what anybody wants, i guess). While using 'Airtel GPRS' , I get that msg 'Activation Rejected'....and thats so sad....



Posted by amd1129
@zusstin did u tried that ip ?

Posted by nealc18
Set your APN to airtelgprs.com

Posted by Pradhika
@nealc. The correct apn of airtel is : airtelwap.com

Posted by zusstin
@amd1129 - Yes, I had tried that IP ... and I am still trying it ...

@Pradhika - I tried airtelwap.com as well... and offcourse airtelgprs.com ... 'Activation Rejected' is what they say...

Thanks for you continuing interest...


Posted by sailaab
Lotsa APN confusion.


Hope you sort it out Zusstin..

I never was on Airtel so cant be sure.

@AMD @Prads> These settings are location specific ? Coz our guy here is in Bombay

Posted by Pradhika
Not location specific. Same anywhere. I have a way. Have lot of bookmarks. At different time different sites opens at first. From there you move to where you want to browse. They sure have some problem.

Posted by sailaab
Ahh ha.. But what IS the correct APN A N D other settings for someone (like Zusstin) in Bombay on Airtel GPRS ?

@Prads> Duh ! Obviously 'they' have a problem ,thats why this thread. Hope Mrao is seeing this n sheds sum light on the Airtel Bombay bit !

I already told that ip is same anywhere in india for Atel. There is trouble in opening sites. You cant predict which site will open at a given time. That is an intelligent problem going on a.tel lol.

have you called the help desk and activated "Mobile Office" Also which handphone are you using.

For Sony Ericsson I had to send MO to 646 and got the settings over the air and installed it.

For Nokia 6021 I had to install in manually.

These are the Manual Settings:

Access Point: airtelgprs.com

Proxy: Disable

Data Bearer: GPRS

Username: 91YourMobileNumber

Password: 0000

This should get you going.

If you still can't get it working most likely your Mobile Offices has not been activated.

Posted by zusstin
@nealc18 :: Thats great. Thanks. I will call them up and have Mobile office activated.

I am using SE p900.

Will let you know about it - may be in a couple of days or over this weekend. Thanks again.

One more. Send an sms "ACT Gprs sonyericsson P900" to 511. Or call customer care at 121 and ask whether your mobile office is active. If yes, send an sms "Mo" to 501. You'll get the settings instantly. Of course 646 also works.

Posted by Pradhika
You get settings from anywhere it wont work. For prepaid system //wap profile name is : Airtel Net on Ph //while ip number is same. //Data account name: Airtel Net on Phone (and) //apn : airtelwap.com //don't even try to change little things like capital letters. Now you can browse. This is the only way. This message was posted from a T610

Prads: When you say ' .. settings from anywhere.. ' Do you mean, even the onez you just gave ? ?

Posted by Pradhika
For airtel prepaid this is the only one and ip is same. Rest all worked when wap service was free. No longer lol.

Posted by sailaab
