It would be jolly decent of you to start the ball rolling then with your findings

Personally I tried and didnt have any luck yet.

Vodafone - No Signal

O2 - Signal 26-28 (tries to register but fails)
AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","mobile.o2.co.uk",""
*99#

Orange - Shows Signal 22-23 (Register Fails)
AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","orangeinternet"
*99#

I know there are some people who've had luck with O2 and t-mobile, pls share the settings with us.

AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","general.t-mobile.uk"
try this mate worked for me but need at least 17% signal
this is for t mobile

[steveharlow]

anybody that has more settings for other networks be fair and share together we will make a good team on this forum

[steveharlow]

Settings for T-Mob works... signal is 27 which is good as there is not much freezing

Working t-mobile with signal of 13. Slight freezing.

after getting a skybox f4 and wanting to use the gprs when away from home ,i did some searching and found these settings and they do both work with a signal strength of 14 and slight glitching but still very watchable.

O2 settings for payg data sim:-
init cmd
AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","m-bb.o2.co.uk"
dial
ATDT*99#
----------------------------------------------------------
giffgaff payg sim settings:-
init cmd
AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","GIFFGAFF.COM"
dial
ATDT*99#

hope these help with your efforts and good luck
