The first question is whether or not your mobile phone can make an IP connection to the PC running NowWAP. Most mobile operators have multiple APNs ... some APNs can only be used to connect to the operator WAP gateway, some APNs can only be used to connect to the operator MMSC, and some APNs allow full internet access. You would need to use an APN that allows full internet access. Next, there is the issue of whether or not there are any firewalls that might block the path to your server. Next is the question of "port". Port 9201 (UDP) is the standard port for WAP/WSP connections. NowWAP automatically listens on this port, and this port number cannot be changed. However, many newer phones use WAP2/HTTP instead. The port number on which NowWAP accepts these connections is configured on the "HTTP" page of the configuration. So if the device you are using supports only WAP2/HTTP, make sure you are connecting to the correct port. I would suggest that you enable the WAPDEBUG.LOG in NowWAP. You can do this by editing WAPGW.INI, and adding Debug=Yes under the [WAPGW] header in that file. If NowWAP receives any connection attempts or data packets, they will be logged to WAPDEBUG.LOG. This way you can see if there is any data making it as far as your server. Another suggestion for troubleshooting is Ethereal (www.ethereal.com) with the WinPCap filter. This tool can be used to determine if any data is making it from the phone to your server. | |||
