Hi Dan, Sorry I missed this thread when it was originally posted. This is an easy one ... you need to set the "Network Connection:" field to point to "Modem: modem name" for your modem. it is not possible to connect to the operator proxy over your LAN connection, it needs to go over the operator network. Usually, the reason someone runs into confusion over this setting is because NowSMS can only do MMS sending/receiving over a modem via an operator MMSC if the modem has a Windows modem driver configured. NowSMS can do SMS sending/receiving over a modem without a Windows modem driver ... where you just select "COM1:" or the appropriate port number. However, the MMS bit requires a Windows modem driver. In order to send/receive MMS messages via a modem, NowSMS needs you to have a Windows modem driver installed for the modem, and when defining the modem to NowSMS, you should use the named Windows modem driver instead of the direct COM port reference. (Stop the NowSMS service, remove the "COMx:" modem definition from the SMSC list, and then re-add the modem using the named modem driver instead.) If your modem does not have a Windows modem driver, just go into the Windows Control Panel and manually add a modem driver to associate with the proper COM port. Use the "Standard 33600 bps Modem" driver. (Don't be concerned about the speed, this driver does not limit you to 33600 bps.) Under the "MMS Settings" for the modem in NowSMS, select the settings for your mobile operator. For "Network Connection:", select the "Modem:" entry that matches the modem driver (NowSMS should pre-select this as the default). Press the "Test Connection" button to verify that NowSMS can make the connection. -bn | |||
