Username: wapuser1

Proxy IP: 10.128.1.69
Port: 80
And yes, APN = Access Point Name. The proxy settings should be available under the Advanced section of the Internet Settings for that connection..
Give that a try and let me know if it works..
I checked into that before. When you activate the phone the automated service assigns you one of their numbers. After that you call customer service & they arrange your number transfer. I won't be going through that for a while, my current contract has a ways to go. I'm just forwarding my calls to my SpeakOut # for now. A waste I know, but my phone is my N900 now.
Not sure if you've found this unofficial site, but it could be helpful:

I am currently using Fido, they're the cheapest plan I know of.
Set-up fees: $35 for the SIM, $35 to set it up, plus taxes, comes to about $80 just to start to use the service on the N900.
Monthly fees: I get the cheapest voice plan, 50 minutes, 50 SMS, for $15. I then add-on 500MB of data for $25.
After taxes, I pay about $45 per month. This gives me full Internet on the N900. I have yet to ever use more than 250 MB in a month.
All that being said, if you can get this Speakout plan working, I'd be very interested. I guess you'd have to SSH to a home PC over port 80 (the aforementioned "port relay") to get full Internet, however...

Is only port 80 open for this service? If so, you have to set up SSH on a computer that is connected to the Internet, then make it available on port 80 (instead of or as well as port 22). You can do this via a router or you can do this in your sshd_config file. Then you use ssh and tsocks on the N900 to get access to everything over your encrypted ssh tunnel.

As for setting up your proxy relay, I'm just as curious as you about how to do that on the N900 side.. I've got DD-WRT on my router configured for it, but running data through an SSH tunnel on the N900 is something I'd very much like to know how to do.
AFAIK though, that's the only way to get full internet through Speakout as it's strictly limited to port 80.

Looks like HTTPS via browser works in some cases, but not for everyone.. Not sure what to make of that.
