Not sure about 7600 but I imagine you just run the dial up networking wizard software that comes with your phone.

On SE the software comes with the phone, you just install it. Not sure about Nokia at all, not sure if it is possible to be honest.

Are you using O2 payg? If you are then the free GPRS can only be used for wap. |

Change the dial up number on your pc to *99# and the username and pass to payandgo and password. Now open your pc browser and look for enable proxy in options, enable it and put 193.113.200.195 in all proxies and 8080 in the ports next to them. That should be you ready since you already did the modem stuff for dial up.

I'm on contract 02. Just connected my laptop to the phone using bluetooth and whilst it connected fine, I couldn't access any sites. After using BossHogg's info (username, password and proxies), it works a treat. Cheers!
