Help please: 'Connection failed to phone...'

Hi,

I'm trying to connect a Nokia 6120 classic to my N810 to use the UK network 3's pay as you go internet.

I've read of people having success connecting to this, and as this link shows, someone has connected a 6120 to 3 but this was with a N800:

Then I had a study from google, tried to find way to configure it manually. And here is the solution, you need to configure the phone connection manually, not wizard. First, pair the phone with N800 on bluetooth, then go to the N800 Connectivity setting.
Connections -> New -> Next -> enter Connection name, choose Packet data -> enter "three.co.uk" as Assecc point name, "*99#" in Dail-up number, and leave others blank -> Next -> Finish

I can connected the N810 to the 6120 without any problems, and I have tried manually setting up a connection or using the wizard (the wizard trues to dial *99***1# but as soon as I try to make the connection I get the error message:

Connection failed to phone Nokia 6120 Classic. Try again?

I can connect my laptop through the phone using usb or bluetooth (using *99#) without any problems.

Can anyone suggest anything that might help solve the problem?

Thanks
Marc

Re: Help please: 'Connection failed to phone...'

try rebooting both the Tablet and the phone.

Go to the access point settings on the n810, there will be a space after 'three.co.uk ', delete this space and it should work.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Sorry, I should have replied here sooner, but I was on a business trip when I finally solved the problem.

Did a hard reset on the phone and everything has been perfect ever since. Something must have got messed up on it.

Anyway, works nicely though the 3 pay as you go. :)
