Orange UK internet settings

Tue, 29 May 2012 22:13:20 GMT

I just bought the Xperia S, and so had to get a new micro SIM as my old phone used a regular one. After installing the SIM I've got the phone up and running on the Orange/T-Mobile network, but so far have been unable to get the phone online, even using my wi-fi connection. I checked the Orange website to see if the settings could be sent to my phone, as I've done in the past with my last phone, but the Xperia S isn't listed on the site so it can't be done that way. Can anyone help me, or let me know if I've missed something stupid that's preventing the phone from accessing the internet?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks, those settings work fine. I can now get online using the 3G. Just need to sort out the wi-fi connection now. For some reason it's only giving me a limited connection, meaning I can't use it for browsing, even when I turn the security on my router completely off, whereas my old phone connects to it with no problems with security is turned on. Why is nothing ever easy?!

Thanks for the link. I checked everything listed in there, but I had everything set up as was suggested already. After playing with my router settings and trying multiple apps the purported to help, one actually did. So, it's all good now. Thanks a lot for all of your help though. It was much appreciated.

FXR WiFi Fix and Rescue.

[edit] It did state that it had fixed it at the first attempt, though it actually hadn't. I tried it again and the second time it did though. A very handy little app.

I know you now have the settings but had you told Orange you had the Arc S that would have worked.
