Have you gotten a bill yet since using the "wap.cingular" setting?
I was wondering though, I had previously done something like this on my Treo and when using "wap.cingular", the Username was then WAP@ rather than ISPDA@.
Below are instructions I found that are similar to what I used before my BB:
Connection Name: whatever you want i named mine wap.cingular
Modem: bluetooth dialup modem
Phone number: *99***1# (turn dialing rules off)
Username: ![[email address]](http://www.blackberryforums.com/?emailimage=926ba5063332a843f899526b95997cb8)
Password: CINGULAR1
**click advanced tab**
Baud rate: whatever i use 19200
uncheck wait for dial tone before dialing
Extra dial string: +CGDCONT=1,"IP","WAP.CINGULAR" (case sensitive and that is an O not a zero)
Again - thanks to everyone for all that I've gleaned on BBF! |
My thanks as well to everyone who contributes to this forum!
I just got my Pearl from Cingular (Philadelphia, PA area) and, thanks to the instructions here, I was able to set it up as a cellular modem! I'm posting this while connected thru the Pearl
I travel for work several times a year and, since my company wouldn't foot the bill for my new BB (not 100% travel) and wouldn't let me on the corporate BES with my own device, this will make it possible for me to tunnel into my corp network to access my emails while in airports and coffee shops.
I REALLY enjoy this phone, It's the best phone I've ever owned. I put BestSkinsEver protection on it (great product) and ordered the case from RIM (great case).
Thanks again to all.
