Hello
Forgive me for newbie questions..
I'm trying to configure SMSC over HTTP and have trouble filling the "Server host name or address" field. What should go there? Since I'm in the US and have an AT&T phone,I tried AT&T WAP gateway from mmsop.ini file - that did not work, got "cannot connect to server" message
Could you please clarify what data should go into that field?
Thanks
Andy

Hi,

If you are using a mobile phone subscription, that is not an HTTP SMSC

You can either use a dedicated GSM modem device that connects via USB (put SIM card in modem), or use a mobile phone with Android (load an app on the Android device and NowSMS connects to it over wifi).

The quick start guide for Android is a good place to start: http://www.nowsms.com/doc/quick-start-guide
