A Conversation for Setting up a Nokia 7110 for h2g2 On the Move

Using Orange settings

Thanks to some personal research by our Research Director, we now know that Orange's external settings only work if you have Orange's homepage set up correctly.

In other words, if you set up your Nokia 7110 using Orange's external settings as detailed on their WAP site, you HAVE to use their homepage or you'll be refused connection every time. Create a bookmark to get to h2g2 instead.

Orange's external settings are:

Homepage: http://othersites/
Connection type: Continuous
Connection security: Off
Bearer: Data
Dial-up number: +447973100501
IP address: 192.168.71.81
Authentication type: Normal
Data call type: ISDN
Data call speed: 9600
User name: Orange
Password: Multimedia

Sorry about that: try again now - the mobile site wasn't very responsive over the weekend but is a lot more healthy now!
