Please Help With This GPRS Problem

Hi, I am using Sony Ericsson W850i and have recently subscribed to PlanetHutch Services for West Bengal. The problem is my I could not connect using GPRS in spite of the fact that GPRS has been successfully activated (I confirmed this from the Hutch Customer Care personnel)

Since there is no automatic settings available for my phone model, I have manually set up the GPRS settings...

============================================================================
Menu > Settings > Connectivity > Data communication:

Data Accounts: [PS Type]: Hutch_GPRS

APN: portainmms
username:
password:
Login Request: Off
Allow Calls: Automatic
IP Address: ... (also tried with 10.10.1.100)
DNS Address: ...
Authentication: None, PAP, CHAP
Data Compression: Off
Header Compression: Off

Menu > Settings > Connectivity > Internet Profiles:

Connect Using: Hutch_GPRS
Use Proxy: Yes
Proxy Address: 10.10.1.100
Port No: 9401
Username:
Password:
===========================================================================

With These Settings whenever I try to browse using the WAP browser, at first it tries to reconnect and then gives the foll. error message:

"Connection Failure. Check settings. If problem persists Contact your operator"

Please help me with this problem. The hutch personnel said to clean up the SIM and then reconnect but its failing. Seems to be a problem with my phone settings

Your APN is wrong. It should be 'portalnmms' instead of 'portainmms' (replace 'i' with 'l')

THANX A LOOOOOOOOOT KRAZYFROG..... It Worked It Worked ..!!!!

My Bad.. read that l as i

I'm glad it worked. I used to have hutch long back. Used the gprs on it extensively. Almost know the gprs settings by heart.

but krazy it might have cost u a fortune crazy

is hutch providing unlimited gprs in ur area ????

Downloads limits weren't counted earlier in hutch, orange then. I guess that's when he used to use it.

hutch always expensive when we talk abt gprs so no point using hutch cos i think its most expensive as far as gprs is concern as they dont have unlimited plan all other service peovider have unlimited plan thx

Yeah that's right. Earlier (around a couple of years ago), hutch (previously Orange in mumbai) used to offer gprs at Rs.99/month in mumbai. It was an unlimited plan. Its then that i used it extensively. Now they charge according to amount of data transfered.

What are the current charges of hutch in west bengal

Try calling Hutch's customer care. They'll be the right people for the job.

in kerala its 1 paise/10 kb
