I had a C500 before and had no problems setting it up to use Vodafone GPRS.

Do you still have Orange firmware on it?

When I had mine I flashed it with QTEK firmware.

I swapped it for a GPS system with Tallus in July, perhaps PM him as if he still has phone he would be in a better position to help you.

try this to set up the Internet/ISP account

(From Home screen)
Programs
Settings
Data Connections
Menu > Edit Connections

GPRS Connections
Menu > Add

Description: Meteor ISP
Connects to: The Internet
Access point: isp.mymeteor.ie
User name: my
Password: isp
Primary DNS: (leaving blank should work, or try 212.129.64.1)
Secondary DNS: (leaving blank should work, or try 212.129.64.2)
IP Address: (leave blank)

Press Done

On the Data Connections screen set:
Internet Connection: Automatic (or set 'Meteor ISP' if you want to set this as default, but remember to switch back to Pass through connection for connecting via ActiveSync)

Press Done

Note, it is not cheap, check with Meteor for latest ISP GPRS charges.
