Hey dalenag here are the settings...

Create a new connection and put any name you want:

Data Bearer = GPRS
Access Point Name = internet.fido.ca
User name = none
Prompt password = no
Password = none
Authentication = normal
Homepage = http://wap.fido.ca

Advanced Settings:
Phone IP = Auto
Primary name server = 0.0.0.0
Second name server = -0.0.0.0
Proxy serv. address = 205.151.11.11
Proxy prot number = 8080

That's it! just make that your default web connection.
It works with mine! :) Cheers!

Big thanks to Kryck for that post about the MMS settings. Now I have a problem sending MMS to anybody other than fido. I hate fido. Does anybody know if they support sending MMS to other networks other than fido? a reply will be really appreciated. Thank you guys

I have no problem sending mms to other networks (fido/rogers, telus, bell .. even abroad). The limit is 300k for Fido, so if your message is larger than that it won't work. Hope that clarifies things.
