I've installed PC-suite and have followed the Mobile Networking Wizard:- this involves:- 1. Create new connection 2. Select packet switched data 3. Select the phone as the modem The next step i'm stuck at. If I use default settings it doesn't work. There's a drop down box to select the network operator but this only seems to include Swedish and German operators? I'm in the UK and with Vodafone. Has anyone completed this process and got it working? Can you advise my next steps? Thanks Nick
