Hi
Please help !! I use my Sony Ericsson V800 to connect to the internet via blue tooth / USB. I installed IE 7.0 2 days ago and found that there is a problem with the yahoo messenger and IE 7. So I uninstalled the IE 7 , now I am using the standard version of IE that comes with XP. Since then I am not able to connect to the internet via my phone (GPRS), but I could connect to Internet from my office LAN. When connecting the GPRS the phone dials and register my pc on the network and the small icon is displayed on the task bar showing its connected and a speed of 115.2 Kbps. But when i try to enter some site or log in to yahoo msngr it never happens it says not connected. I tried pinging some sites but it was also a waste. Can anyone tell me where am I going wrong.


Regards
RJ

First reaction would be to make sure you are using the 'internet' APN.

Also check that all your options under IE 6 were not scrambled under IE 7. I'm also using the 7 beta and its (like always with Windoze) full of bugs!
