Did you try using Opera, Firefox, Iceweasel, Macuco, Midori, Tear, Chromium (if available)?

I tried firefox and Opera lastest version, also cant. The only way is use symbian web browser, but i think it is impossible to do it. I also asked the phone operator, they said from now it is un-supported.

by the way, I am Hong Kong

Yes here's a tutorial: http://gerrymoth.co.uk/?p=108

That website also cannot be accessed using wifi. It needs to be accessed using vodafone's network.

AFAIK the symbian browser is webkit based and so is tear. So your best bet would be to try tear.

Looks like you need to simulate a WAP(WML) browser

Does this work on a N900 or try a search for N900 version?

load xterm and type "vlc" to launch vlc and "tear" to launch tear.
