Default Nokia N95 internet help please

Good evening all.

Heres the deal, i have a contract with T-mobile and would like to use the

internet with my phone. And if i remember rightly they charge 72p per kb .

Now if i connect through my router, (bt home hub) is it possible that T-mobile

will charge me or. Have any of you tried it and did you get billed.

Thanks in advance guys

If you use the WLAN scan to find your wireless hub and connect that way you'll be fine. I've used it like this a few times but no real point as the laptops better.

But if your at home you'll be connecting via your Isp account. Nothing to do with the mobile service provider.

You can even use the net via the Wlan scan without a simcard in.

Yep Web & Walk is the way to go on the move I`ve got a T-Mobile PAYT sim card just to use W&W when I need to. It costs a £1 a day for unlimited download use, can even download videos of tiny tube.

WLAN didnt realy work on my N95 (and I'm, using it to write this post on the laptop). After about 100kb of data it always froze - happened to others too. Phone is back with Nokia at the mo as a firmware upgrade was meant to cure it but killed it!

For comparison Vodafone charge £7.50 for 15Mb a month on my tariff (but they gave it to me free as I asked very nicely indeed )
