Connecting Nokia 770 to Nokia 6600


After updating the operating system on a Nokia 770, it was no longer possible for the user to make a packet connection via GPRS through a Nokia 6600. The presenting symptom was "Unable to connect to internet, Try again?"



Here are the corrective actions applied and the results.


Rediscover the 6600 using Control Panel | Phone

No error messages, but no internet connection

Re-install the cellphone provider information using the wizard

No error messages, but no internet connection

Delete the 770 from the 6600's list of authorized devices, delete the 6600 from the 770's list of phones, and delete the cellphone provider information from the 770's list of connections, then re-install

No error messages, but no internet connection

Turn the 6600 off, then turn it back on
Success!
