Yep, that is what does it for me for the PK as well. The folks at Cingular did give me a modem initialization string and, although it works just fine for the PAC Mate, I just never could get it to work with the PK, thus the longer way around. Also, I might add that, to use the isp.cingular access point, I have one of their data plans, and not their media net plan. Well, I have a media net plan, too; but, according to the Cingular terms and conditions for it,
http://www.cingular.com/media/media_legal that plan, which uses the wap.cingular access point, is just meant for the internet on the phone itself, or so it appears with their reference to tethering in their terms and conditions. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Peggy Kern" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, June 26, 2005 11:37 PM Subject: Re: [Braillenote] Nokia 6620 and pk as modem: I have a regular BN and not a PK, so I don't know if this will help, but I've been able to use the GPRS with Cingular and the 6620 and the BN. In the connection configurations, my user name is [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note it's all in caps). The password is CINGULAR1 again all in caps. The number to dial out is *99***1# which for those with punctuation off is star 99 star star star 1 pound. To get this to work, I had to go into (let's see if I can remember) settings, connections, GPRS, and access points, and set ISP.CINGULAR as my access point. I still want to learn how to get mail and web stuff with the phone itself, but I think I need to upgrade Talks before I can do that. But perhaps this info will help someone with Cingular be able to get it going with their BN or PK and GPRS.
