Tom Tom GO 300, Vodafone PAYG, and Nokia N-GAGE QD

[atem55]

Hi,
I've been trawling through all the relevant threads on the forum on how to set up my tom tom and nokia n-gage to work with Traffic using Vodafone PAYG with no luck . I normally consider myself to be pretty PC literate but im stumped!

I hve tried to setup the n-gage with an access point using the info from the filesaveas site used pp.vodafone.co.uk and password/username of web on the tomtom, but im not sure what i should be using for the login script, i've tried the one shown on the tom tom site but with no joy...

If anyone could provide some assistance on exactly what i need to put in my n-gage and the manual setting for the tom tom I would be enternally grateful!

(I have contacted Vodafone and had my GPRSservice activated)

Thanks in advance!

The phones GPRS settings would seem to be OK, as I have got a working internet connection with it on my laptop using a bluetooth dongle, and the TOM TOM pairs with the phone OK, and seems to identify its various functions. But i cant get any further... So I'm assuming it must be the DNS settings, login script, or IP settings...

HI,

I wonder if you could help me ?

I have a nokia ngage qd and have purchased a copy of tomtom mobile 5 ....... which doesn't seem to work on it.

How/where do you get tomtom go which will work on a qd ? (I'm desperate for some sort of navigation as I'm particularly bad with directions !)

Thanks

The setting given by Tomtom for vadafone are contract not payg. payg settings are:
pp.vodafone.co.uk
web
web
*99#
+cgdcont=1,"ip","pp.vodafone.co.uk"
Note the login scipt has beginning and end missing; this is the difference.

It doesn't matter about country, network etc. just put this info in and it will work. Currently £7 per MB and costs 5p per update for me.
