Orange GPRS from a Palm Tungsten T3

Recently, I enabled GPRS on my phone, so that I could get high speed connections to the Internet from my Tungsten T2 via Bluetooth.

Unfortunately, the required information for configuring the Palm network connection isn't available anywhere on the Orange website. However, Orange data services helped me through the setup, so in case anyone else needs it here is what you do:

In Network create a new Service with the following parameters:

Service: Orange (or any name of your choice)
User name: "a"
Password: "a"

Note the quotes are required

Connection type: PPP
Idle timeout: never
Query DNS
IP Address automatic

Script:
Send AT&F
Send CR
Send AT+CGDCONT=1 ,"IP","orangeinternet"
Send
Send
Send CR
Send ATD*99#
Send CR
Wait for CONNECT
End

In Connection create a new Connection with the following parameters:

Connection
Name: GPRS (can be whatever you want)
Connect to: PC
Via: Bluetooth
Device: Nokia 6310i
Speed: 115,200
Flow Ctl: Automatic

In Network make sure that connection is set to GPRS (or whatever you
called it) and away you go.
