One more reason to believe that Orange are incompetent morons. I’m connected to Orange NL, trying to use the Orange UK GPRS connection details, and it’s failing:
pppd 2.4.2 (Apple version 233-13) started by root, uid 501
Nokia 3G CID1
Making network connection
Connect: ppp0 <–> /dev/cu.Bluetooth-Modem
PAP authentication succeeded
Connection terminated.
Mind you, I know this sort of thing regularly fails with other networks, too (it was failing with Vodafone back in 2005), so it’s not just Orange that’s bad this time. Somehow the telcos are still completely missed out on the internetworking part of the internet.
Meanwhile, there’s a KPN “all you can eat” 3G data card sat on the other side of the room, but it’s PCMCIA so I can’t use it in my Macbook
