Hi,

What error does NowSMS report when you try to connect? (Does it say "Unable to connect to SMPP server" or does it give some other error?)

What happens when you try to Telnet?

Do you get a blank screen, or do you get a connection error?

A blank screen is ok, because you are connecting.

A connection error suggests that the provider has not opened up to allow access to their SMSC from your IP address.
