Any experience with setting up the Now SMS/MMS Gateway with the bulksms.net service? | |||
| Bryce Norwood - NowSMS Support (Bryce) |
We haven't had any experience with them, but they look pretty straightforward to setup. The only thing that concerns me is that I don't see any mention of supporting "user data header". Most binary SMS requires a user data header, and since they say they support ring tones, I can only assume that the service must assume that a "user data header" is always present in a binary SMS message. Based on their web site, it looks like I would set them up as an HTTP SMSC as follows: Host Name: bulksms.vsms.net Port Number: 7512 Username & Password: Username and password for the bulksms.net service Send login credentials via HTTP header - NOT checked Server type: Custom URL Template Text: /eapi/1.0/send_sms.mc?username=@@UserName@@&password=@@Password@@&message=@@Text@@&msisdn=@@PhoneNumber@@ URL Template Binary: /eapi/1.0/send_sms.mc?username=@@UserName@@&password=@@Password@@&dca=8bit&message=@@UDH@@@@Data@@&msisdn=@@PhoneNumber@@ Sender Address: blank (doesn't appear to be supported) Remove "+" from Recipient phone number: CHECKED Send long messages without segmentation: NOT checked Good luck! -bn | |||

Sanjith, Perhaps a stupid question ... but have you actually registered for an account with their service? Have you purchased any credits from them? I suspect that you have to register your IP address with their system for your account ... otherwise they are not going to let you connect to the service. -bn | |||
