GPRS dial up in Windows CE
Vinoth
I have an SIMCOM508 GSM modem. I tried the GPRS Connection in the PC using
"phone and modem options" and "Network Dial UP option" in Windows XP using
the serial port COM1. I am able to browse the internet.
But I am trying in windows CE 6.0 using the "Dialing" and "Network and Dial
UP Connections". I am using the PXA 270 based reference platorm and i am
using COM1 (FFUART) to connect the GSM Modem. I have added The following
component in the build.
Networking - WAN
* Dial Up Networking (RAS/PPP)
* AutoDial
*Point to Point Protocol
*Standard Modem Support for Dial Up Networking
Telephony API(TAPI 2.0)
In the "Make new Connection" wizard i select the modem "Hayes Compatible on
COM1":
Port settings:
=========
baudrate:19200
data bits:8
Parity:None
Stop Bits:1
Flow Control: Hardware
Call OPtions:
========
Extra settings:
Special Modem command may be inserted into the dial string.
AT+CDGCONT=1,"IP","airtelgprs.com"
I removed the region and area code. i have entered *99# as the phone NO.
In the "phone dialing Option" i removed the default dial patterns (ex)
local call, international call etc.
I tried to connect, but i showing the following error " The Port is not
available another program may be using it".
please help me in this issue.
Advance thanks,

It happened with me too, but with another application.
In my case, the problem was that the COM1 port is used by OS as debug
port, and others application can't to use this port. So if you have
another port able in your platform you can use it to test
I did it worked customizing the source code in debug.c from D:
\WINCE500\PLATFORM\BSP\Src\Kernel\X86\Common\Other folder
..search about COM1 as debug port post in this group that you will
understand better.
I hope that it helps you in anything.

I'm having the same problem and I know my debugger is not using the same
port as Mauricio suggested. I have a test program like Hyperterminal that
allows me to "talk" to the GPRS modem manualy.
When I use the dial-up (RAS) I get the same error message you got. if the
problem is modem initialization could you please share with me.
Thanks,
Javier Grijalba
can you tell us exactly what you did to solve this issue " The Port is not
If i just send raw AT commands with some terminal it works perfectly, but
not with the Dial Up from WIndows CE 5.0
What initialisation command is needed?

1. Use an application such as hyperterminal to send AT commands to your GSM
port
if you send AT and you get OK then go to next step.
2. Close the serial application that you used in step 1 above
to use GSM this solution requires that a network connection be created
under ïƒ Settings->Network
create a Dial Upconnection select a modem "Hayes Compatible on COMx:" select
the COM port that connects to your GSM.
Define your Port Settings and then on Call Options you should see a box for
Extra Settings. In this box you have to enter a command +CGDCONT=1,ip,???
(this is the APN you have to get this last one from your carrier)
APN is depending on your sim:
If cingular: isp.cingular
if t-mobile: wap.voicestream.com
No login / pwd.
3. Go to your new connection properties
For the dial number, you enter *99***1#
Uncheck Force long distance
Uncheck Force local
Uncheck Wait for dial tone
In TCP settings uncheck Slip and leave all the other ones checked.
In Security uncheck Data Encryption and uncheck EAP, use MD5-Challenge and
leave all the other ones checked.
Save everything and you're good to go!
4. Double click on the new connection and watch it dial and authenticate
Remember without +CGDCONT=1,ip,??? (APN) it is not going to work. Get the
APN from your carrier and replace the ??? with the APN

I have the same problem with a Telit GM862 GSM/GPRS modem.
If i just send raw AT commands with some terminal it works perfectly, but
not with the Dial Up from WIndows CE 5.0
What initialisation command is needed?
