Just a wild guess. Have you entered the appropriate DNS settings for your MAXIS GPRS? Refer the palmx website for it.
Hope it helps. |

@ShawO, don't worry ...

@San
Theoritically, changing DNS does not affect the charges. Still free
@To all
I have one question for all you hardcore GPRS users. Isn't getting online through GPRS expensive? I finally got my iPAQ + GPRS (DiGi) working, by getting online in MSN (not even ONE message sent/received), data rate already hit 120KB = RM1.20! How could that be? All the while I thought getting online, downloading mails are cheap. Just now tried receive 2 mails which are less than 2k, RM4 spent for GPRS  |

DNS is not in any way related to charges. It is for your computer to resolve address from what you type, say www.esato.com to a real internet address (IP address) which is 81.27.33.7
MSN or ICQ for that matter would need to connect to the ICQ/MSN server which would require some data transfer. For ICQ it needs to download/check your entire contact list every time you connect to the server.
I think there is some data transfered to let the server know you are still online. |

To the first question:
- Dei, morning is no problem, say 10am?
To second question (long version):
- If you already have GPRS hooked in, you can use any DNS server to query and the server would respond like any other query. In network terms, DNS is layer-4 and GPRS is layer-2. The billing works in layer-2, so if your GPRS is free, using any DNS won't costs you a bit.
To second question (short version):
- It's free!
Cheers,
