I tried this today on my iphone 4 and it worked like a charm!

The steps to follow are :
Download iphone configuration utilty 3.1
Click on the "Configuration Profiles"
In the right window, select Advanced
fill in the following settings -
APN - portalnms
username - (keep blank)
password - (keep blank)
Proxy server - 10.10.1.100
Proxy Port - 9401

Then click on the General tab and fill in anything in all the fields
(You need not save anything as everything is auto saved)

Connect your iphone and install the profile as described in the original post

after this you should be able to access the net through safari. (You need to have Vodafone live! activated for this, if not contact customer care and get it activated)
Using Vodafone Live! you won't be able to use apps that require a net connection, you can only browse web using safari.
To do that, you will need to use Vodafone Mobile Connect. (Contact Customer Care to get it activated, it costs 199 pm for 3GB data usage and 5p/10kb afterwards on a postpaid connection)

To use Vodafone Mobile Connect on your iphone:
Create a Configuration Profile similar to how it was created for Vodafone Live!
In the Advanced, put APN as www and keep rest of the fields blank
Install on your iphone and you will be able to use all your apps that require a net connection.

hey dragon I am also facing similar problem from past 10 days or so. is that problem from server side ? of line problem ? on DNS prob?...

Webber could go to renault, former renault boss flavio briatore is webber's manager and renault supplies engines to RBR, either kubica or sutil can take his place at RBR.

I can also get the signal near Sarjapur Outer Ring Road, Bangalore

I'm jus going to stick with BSNL for now. Their 3G coverage has improved a lot lately

I bought another sim card as well in Bangalore and same problem. If you happen to visit Gujarat, please let me know if it works there

Thank you!

If you click on About This Service at the bottom and then click Opt Out, they give you the address of two DNS servers that don't hijack. Latency to those is ~70ms.

Don't use Google DNS. It gives them power that no one should possess. They know your email address and associated IP, all DNS queries are logged. Hence they know exactly who you are, and about all your illegal activities and porn fetishes and what not. Google keeps even plain search history against IP address when you are not logged in and provides it to law enforcement when proof is needed against suspects.

My details

Router - ZTE ZXDSL 531b
O.S- Win 7 ultimate.

Still in windows 7 i have never achieved the auto connect option. I still have use the dialer. Please tell me what am i doing wrong. Else i will have to buy a new router! :(

What the damn people do not seem to understand is that the government is holding them like small chickens in a meat shop ready to be butchered. Jairam Ramesh says its a crime, someone should ask him "How many people not associated with the government in some way or the other drive such cars?" And then he can get a little busy. The government since the era of Indira Gandhi has done nothing but looted the people of the country. The country is riddled with scams all the way,from the bofors scam,kargil scam,cwg scam,2g scam. I mean these are the really big ones. There are more than 10000 scams commited in the last 50 years. What really is the problem is that the country is run by all rich,wealthy people. No-one seems to care anymore about what happens to the 50% population below poverty line. People are just interested in minting money , buying imported cars , stocking large reserves of black money in swiss accounts and riding the god damn gravy train. The government levies a 100% import duty on fuel . For what? Why should the common man pay 2 times the price per litre of petrol ? If fuel was made cheaper it would lead to a more productive country. Food would cost less, people would pay tax (they were saving because other commodities were expensive) , people would commute to their work more easily (leading to less rush and more productive work). These are only some flaws. Just scrapping out the topsoil as they say. The government cries that it doesnt have enough funds to run the country or make the budget. Why do honest office going people have to pay tax which they know is going eventually in the babus pocket and not in repairing the road in front of their house? Still they pay tax every year. The government is not accountable to the people in any way. Just look at the news everyday and you get a idea of how bad things are, but this is just the begining if someone does not make these people quiet we are going to have to face some really shameful moments and look deep in out hearts and think "Are we really that bad?" . What's wrong its the whole damn system thats screwed up . The common man goes to the MLA, the MLA tells him go to the state MP, the state MP tells him go to the CM, the CM tells him go to the PM, the PM says i can't do anything about it. I guess even putting a rough estimate out of the total budget of india made in every bill 20% of that never gets utilised. Most of it finds its way into the Parties or babus pocket. It's really disgusting to even hear that how people of our own country , loot the people of the country and disrupt the common man's life. We have a population of nearly 1.2billion or so , it has been 65 years since independence and we haven't seen a sincere political party really interested in working in the favour of the people and for the people. All political parties are corrupt as the other. Maybe they have a little bit difference here and there but in essence they are all the same. Why does no one want to make an effort and do some good for the country. I could type on and on but i feel i should leave this here tonight and request your views and replies .
