    Try connecting using GSM rather than GPRS.

    Unable to connect.
    I can't even browse the net using GSM anymore.
    I've checked the settings with the ones in the sticky aswell.

    Operator: o2
    Phone: 7650
    Account: Post-Pay

    I can now get online but it fails to connect to any servers. Tried using GPRS and Gsm. Both return the (-18) error message.

    "Resolving irc.quakenet.org ... failed (-18)
    Disconnected"

    if you haven't already can you check this thread for the O2 GPRS internet access point settings (they shold be listed under 'email')

    if you haven't used it before you may need to call O2 (1740) to get it activated (although if you can make a GPRS network connection it sounds like it is up), also look at choosing a GPRS package for your account if you plan to use it alot

    just tried on the 7650 with version 1.80 using GPRS (internet) connection on O2 with DNS server settings entered, to ign.ie.quakenet.org (on #boards.ie) and got on ok...
