benefits

Configure your phone

The main benefit of the WAP Access service is that it offers you a large resource of information directly on your mobile phone.

technical info

The access to WAP means the right to use the specialised server called "WAP Gateway" of Orange Romania.
The role of this server is to translate the information written in WML (Wireless Meta Language), typical for the WAP protocol, into information that the navigator included in the mobile phone can display on the screen.

The wap connection can be made in 2 ways, depending on the technology you are using: 3G / EDGE / GPRS (General Package Radio Service) or CSD (Circuit Switched Data).
The connection on 3G / EDGE / GPRS support is an IP(Internet Protocol) connection made by accessing the corresponding APN (Access Point Name).
The authentication is automatic and no other settings are necessary.

The connection on CSD support is a dial-up connection type made by dialling the short number 544.

For manual configuration, depending on the phone type, WAP 1.0 or WAP 2.0 settings will be used.
