@moochcaboodle- Try to configure your Sun settings manually. For Sun WAP GPRS, Data bearer-GPRS, APN-wap, IP address-192.168.164.21, homepage-http://www.suncellular.com.ph. Also check if Sun WAP and Sun MMS settings are your default settings.

@hugh_lee- Yes, i'm still using my Postpaid plan to browse WAP. It's free. The only thing itemized in my bill is GPRS internet, using "minternet" as the APN. The 25cents/kb charge only applies to INTERNET browsing and not WAP browsing. You can still use your current settings if you decide to buy i prepaid account but you have to send ACTIVATE to 2300 first to activate your prepaid WAP and MMS.

@s700lover and p3rsmag- You can't connect to Opera browser using Sun WAP GPRS. You can browse it using the APN- minternet. If you don't have the settings, copy your WAP setting and change the APN wap to "minternet". But you will be charge 25cents/kb. My advise is, if you want to browse Opera (the APN is minternet), turn the images off so you could save money and try checking your bill from time to time.

@s700lover - Try Reqwireless Webviewer. It works on wap access point. It's a fast browser too because it's proxied.

it's erratic. a lot of fimes, you get a connection, but then you can't download stuff.. or maybe you can but it takes a long time, and i don't have the patience. all in all, you can still get a connection but not as consistent as before. oh, wait.. was it ever?

BTW, ex_crusader, was your post in reference to my question? thanks

Someone has got to get SUn Cellular's attention.

The free calls/texts to sun subscribers only IS NOT SUFFICIENT ENOUGH TO SUSTAIN MY INTEREST in keeping my subscription with them.

Palakasin ang WAP/GPRS!!

by the way ano ba target market ng SUN? in line ba with globe/smart or parang talk & text/touchmobile?

uhh...i want to ask something. i've been reading this thread and became interested in swithching telcos since i use wap/gprs very often and got piqued about the unlimited access and free usage of sun. my question is: is the coverage sufficient, especially in the provinces? when i send sms would it come on time, give or take a few seconds? how about voice clarity? data transfer rates? i'm asking heare beacause the lot of you has had 1st hand experience and asking the people at sun would give me biased answers.
hope you guys could help. thanks!
