First thing to check is that you have GPRS for internet access enabled
via Vodafone, it's different from the GPRS for WAP. Give them a call
and check.

Secondly, it could be the way the 2 devices are bonded, can you do
anything else with the phone? Like dial numbers or something?

Bov!

OK - I've done everything (I think.)

The iPaq is paired with the phone.
When I try to access a web page, the phone clearly gets connected to,
because it asks "accept a connection from the iPaq".

I accept, it says it's connected, then IMMEDIATELY, says "iPaq
disconnected."

A few seconds after that, the phone says "Device not available".

About 30 seconds after _that_, the iPaq says "no reply" from ISP.

This is an iPaq 3870, and a Nokia 6310i, on Vodaphone.

GPRS _is_ working, because I can WAP over GPRS onto, say, Vizzavi :-)

Any ideas, team :-)

Regards,

Mark
