[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Dear Damien,

Thank you for your email.

Further to your query, I can advise you Meteor do not currently sell the Window Mobile Phone and as such, we are unable to provide settings specific to this phone. I can however confirm that you may still be able to use standard GPRS and MMS settings from our network.

I have outlined the steps below so you can make full use of the MMS function of the handset. In order for you to be eligible to use this handset's MMS function, I have activated the ISP Internet Connection on your handset. This function also allows you to use your iPhone as a modem.

In order to fully activate Isp Internet, WAP and MMS on your phone, please follow the steps provided.

· First you will need to go to the SETTINGS menu on your handset.
· Once in this menu please select the GENERAL option.
· When you have accessed this menu, please choose the NETWORK option.
· After you have entered this option, please choose the EDGE option and enter the following settings:

APN: isp.mymeteor.ie
Username: my
Password: meteor

mmsc: mms.mymeteor.ie
proxy: 010.085.085.085:8799
apn: mms.mymeteor.ie
username: my
password: meteor
image size: medium


I would like to make you aware that accessing the Internet through your phone is a chargeable service with standard rates at 2 cent per KB downloaded.

Meteor have however just launched great new Mobile Internet rates for pre pay customers whereby the first 50 MB of data downloaded each day is charged at only 99 cent and it is only after this amount has been used that standard charging rates comes into effect.You can check the balance of your 50MB daily allowance at any time from your phone by dialling *#105#.
Please contact us with any further queries on free phone 1905 or info@meteor.ie

Regards,

Have a look at the FAQ. There's a couple of walkthroughs for your problem there.

Reading your post I'm not sure if you entered them already or not. What I would suggest is clearing them all and entering from the sticky again.

I did a search on your Windows Mobile device, as you mentioned the model name in another thread, and it appears to be a Chinese handset. As such, I am unaware whether it contains a standard version of Windows Mobile 6 Professional, so the below may or may not be entirely accurate. Either way, you should be able to use the below as a basis to set your handset up correctly.

To delete any existing connections, go here:

Start => Settings => Connections tab => Connections

You will have two options, My ISP and My Work Network. Select Manage existing connections under My ISP first and delete any existing connections; you can delete a connection by pressing the screen over the connection name until the option Delete appears and select it. Once finished, do the same under My Work Network.

Once this has been carried out, follow the guide in the FAQs for Windows Mobile 6 Professional and you should be able to connect to the Internet and send/receive MMS, provided your mobile number is provisioned correctly on the Meteor network.

Under meteor isp data connection, select Add a new modem connection and the follow the guide in the FAQs, as noted below:

Enter a name for the connection: Meteor Data
Select a modem: Cellular line (GPRS, 3G)
Press Next
Access point name: data.mymeteor.ie
