Hi there, I have some free time here and feel like posting a HOW-TO for whoever asking if it was possible to use the WAP connection on laptop.
First trick is to fool the Wap gateway by changing the I.E. User Agent so that the Forbidden website will not show again.
Using Regedit.exe navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\User Agent
You will have to add a a string value and rename it to Platform.
Or simply do the following : Open notepad and past the following code and rename the *.txt file to *.reg
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\User Agent]
@="Mozilla/4.0"
"Compatible"="Compatible"
"Version"="MSIE 6.0"
"Platform"=""
Second and final step is to configure the modem.
Control Panel -> Phone and modem options -> choose the modem used by your cellular phone ( usually bluetooth or so.. ) -> advanced
In the Extra Initialization Commands box type :
AT+CGDCONT=1,"ip","wap.mic1.com.lb"
wap.mic1.com.lb could be replaced by the wap.mtctouch.com.lb for MTC users.
Cheers.
