    Hi,

    I would appreciate some help if possible.

    I am trying to use my MDA Pro as a USB Modem but I am unable to connect. I
    get as far as "Registering your computer on the network" but I get "Remote
    Access error 720".

    I have tried leaving the username and password blank, tried User and Pass,
    etc but nothing works.

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Many thanks!

    From the webpage on Web n Walk:
    *Minimum term contact and credit check applies. Compatible handset
    required. Fair use policy applies: Relax + web 'n' walk and Flext + web
    'n' walk price plans provide unlimited internet browsing on mobile
    handsets in the UK. To ensure a high quality of service for all our
    customers, *they are not to be used for* other activities such as (but
    not limited to): *modem access for computers*, internet based

    detected, notice may be given, after which network protection controls
    may be applied which will result in a reduced speed of transmission. [My

    Has it worked in the past and suddenly stopped? If so, seems like you've
    fallen foul of that rule. If it's never worked, I wonder if they have
    some way of telling instantly that you're using it as a computer modem
    and so block the access.

    Thank you for your advice! No, this was the 1st time I tried.

    I ended up calling T-Mobile and asking about Web n Walk Pro. They only
    seemed to know about the normal version and the version that comes with a
    datacard. When I asked about using the MPA Pro as a modem, they said I can
    do that with my tarriff! So I was put through to technical support and they
    talked me through the setup. The problem was an incorrect initialisation
    string!

    Thanks for your help!
