Hi, please help if you can. I had a support guy on the phone Friday who seemed to know exactly how to configure my gateway but shame on me, I was going out just then so I took a few notes of what I thought he told me. I have a Sony Ericsson P900. I need to know first how that needs to be setup. SMSC setup: At the moment I use a cable connecting to my notebook usb port but have noticed a selection Standard Modem over IR Link and selected that. Testing though gives me an error - Unable to initialize modem: Error 80000048 from lineOpen. Anybody know what I need to do please??? thanks George | |||

ok managed to get a bluetooth connection going and gateway connects but comes back with a message Modem does not support SMS - I used Standard 56000 bps V90 modem to achieve this. Anyone know what is wrong? thanks | |||

Hi George, Unfortunately, that is not completely wrong. The SonyEricsson P900 does not implement the AT command set for sending SMS over the GSM modem interface. (Unfortunately, many of the so-called "smart phones" omit this type of SMS connectivity in one way or another. Nokia smart phones are at least a little better as they allow SMS sending, but they don't allow SMS receiving.) Here is a link to a thread with discussions of alternative phones for use as a GSM modem: http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/4218.html -bn | |||

thanks Bryce that IS a shame - it is the only phone I have and I am staggered that these so called Smartphones do not support the AT command set - a little basic requirement in my view to be fully backward compatable. However, if I have no alternative method of setting up your software then I have no option but to de-install. Shame - concept looked good. george | |||
