Hi,

Getting a 'Unable to connect to WAP gateway' error while testing my MC35 modem.

Here is the details -

Using NowSMS 5.51a
Orange UK PAYG SIM (I have phoned up Orange }and enabled MMS)


MMS settings I'm using -

MMS Server URL: mms.orange.co.uk/
Network connection: Standard 19200bps Modem
WAP Gateway IP Address: 192.168.224.10
Modem Used: Standard 19200bps Modem

Any help would be very much appreciated!

Hi Mark,

The settings look correct.

We just don't seem to be able to get a response back from the WAP gateway.

Someone had a problem like this recently, and it turned out to be a conflict in that they were using "10." addresses on their LAN which were conflicting to the "10." addresses that Orange assigns when you connect to them.

That is something of a long shot, but a possibility:

http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/485/8026.html

Beyond that, I'd suggest trying the following ...

Connect to the modem's COM port using Hyperterminal ... (Programs/Accessories/Communications/Hyperterminal).

Issue the command ATZ and you should get back an OK response.

Type

AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","orangemms" (press Enter)

Modem should respond OK

Type

AT&W (press Enter)

Modem should repond OK

See if that makes a difference. I don't recall any problems with the Siemens MC35, but I have seen a couple of modems that did not like to connect to an APN's other than CID=1.

Hi Bryce

Cheers for the reply. I do just happen to be on a LAN with an IP starting 10. , hopefully that's the problem, never would of thought of that!!

Thanks

Mark
