Setting Up 3G Access On Nokia E51

[jcat98]

Hi,

I have just bought myself an offline nokia e51 to replace my blackberry 8700f (I have 8m left on my contract so am stuck with them for the time being - why is oranges selection of new phones so bad?!).

The 3G icon doesn't appear on the phone, i am able to use the normal orange world services - but not over 3G.

What do I need to do to set this up? I have made several calls to orange but they are hopeless.

Thanks,

Thanks for the reply.

It was in 'dual mode', when i force it into UMTS i seem to lose coverage.

From what I have been reading it seems I need a 3G enabled sim, I have arranged for orange to send one out. Hopefully that should sort it out.

In the mean time I have to say I am loving the phone, very small/light with great connectivity!
