TIM Alice Maxxi 150 SIM problem

AdamLS8 · **TIM Alice Maxxi 150 SIM problem -** 19-09-2008, 23:45

Hi!

I bought TIM Alice Maxxi 150 SIM card today, to use my Nokia N80 as a modem for my laptop.
It was 30 euro.
It doesn't work. It worked for a minutethen stopped.
When I use my AT&T SIM from USA Nokia PC Suite connects to the internet ans it works fine so I know my phone and laptop configuration is fine.

I cant even make phone calls with this TIM card.
I dont speak Italian and my co-worker bought it for me but left the town for the weekend.
Is there waiting period till it start to work?
How do I setup my phone to use internet service (it is supposed to be 150 hours of usage). My co-worker mentioned something about ibox access point.
Thanks in advance for help.

"Maxxi Alice 150" is just an option offered for TIM prepaid SIMs. To activate it you need to send an SMS containing "PRO MAXXIALICE150" to 4916.

Also you have to configure the correct access point (APN) either in the Nokia PC Suite, which is ibox.tim.it

If internet access has worked with your TIM SIM before and now you can't even place phone calls, you may have burned your credit by accessing the web without activating the data option. So check your balance by sending "SALDO MAXXIALICE100" to 4916. If it's consumed, you need to recharge € 30 in order to have enough credit to activate the desired option "Alice Maxxi 150".

Btw "Alice Maxxi 150" is only valid in the evening, on weekends and bank holidays. Check http://prepaid-wireless-internet-acc...y+-+TIM?t=anon for more information on TIM's data options.

Thank you.

How do I set up this access point in Nokia PC Suite or my Nokia N80, or any other Symbian S60 Nokia, as they would have the same menus?
