Wierd one...

Just recently got a GPRS account set up but now I can't send sms messages. Coincidence? Just keeps coming up message failed. Have I just changed a setting somewhere?

I am on BT Cellnet.

SMS needs to send via GSM not GPRS so goto:

Connect
Data Comm.
SMS access

and change to GSM.

That might be correct in UK,..but not here in denmark. I use SMS via GPRS,..works very fast indeed.
I did this with my T-39 too.

This might be a stupid question, but why shouldnt it work in UK as well ?

The operators are not keen to have SMS over GPRS, since they are making money on SMS over GSM.
I think this is the case in UK.
In Sweden, none of the operators have SMS over GPRS, due to this money-issue. :-/
