I adjusted the settings on my LG-4400 phone to use the ip address and ports found on waptunnel.com. For some reason though I still can't get online. It keeps saying server not responding. Are there any other wap gateways around?

It's a public WAP gateway that allows people to browse the internet on their phone without their service provider's WAP fees. It looks like it's down though because my phone won't connect to the server.

So what would it do for me? I use Cingular and they charge per kb of data transferred....

All you would have to pay for is the air time.

If you know about Waptunnel, you've probably been to HowardForums at least once. Search, as always, is your friend... just look for info on running your own WAP gateway.

Ok their site sucks. I did a search for "WAP" and got this

Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms.

WTF?

Check out a program called WAP3GX - you can run your own WAP server and never have to worry about it going down.

I run my own as well so if you don't want to do your own, PM me and I'll give you my server's IP.
