GPRS / phone modem setup
Got myself a new phone but have forgotten how to set the thing up as a modem on the laptop using the GPRS.
I thought the dialup No was supposed to be *99# but it doesn't work.
Tried leaving the username and password blank as I thought I remembered that's how it was setup last time but according to orange website it's supposed to be "Orange" and "Multimedia".

Probably no help whatsoever but on my PDA -> Bluetooth -> Mobile -> Vodafone set up I had to add an extra dial string command to get it to work (as advised by an unusually helpful bloke in Vodafone customer support). The command was +CGDCONT=1,"IP","INTERNET"
No idea why that was needed to make it work
*99# is the correct number though.

Seems like it's not finding the modem (on the laptop) and not even getting as far as the phone.
