Help! QNC Yes, NationalAccess No

Archived from groups: alt.cellular.verizon (More info?)

All,

A few days ago I've posted asking if National Access has been
disabled.. a lot of people confirmed that it's still working for them.


However, I still can't get mine to work.. qnc/qnc works w/o any
problem, xxxxxxxxxx@vzw3g.com/vzw.. I've tried playing with various
modem strings, however I don't really thing the modem/device is the
problem..

My phone is an LG vx4400, I use the USB-to-Serial Cable. I can connect
to QNC and browse, the vzw3g.com connection stops at authentication
(The phone in both cases states 'QNC[PPP]' when connecting)

I've tried enabling Mobile Web, tried getting Verizon to make sure I
have 1xPP1 and 1xMOU on my account, however still no luck.

All this time, I've been suspecting that I am having trouble b/c I
have been a Verizon Wireless customer for 5-6 years, and some features
were never automatically enabled on my account, therefore my vzw3g.com
account doesn't authenticate..

Can anyone suggest what else to try?
Someone suggested earlier to force the phone into 1x mode only,
however, I couldn't find such an option on this phone. When it dials
up into MobileWeb, it shows an arrow symbol, that in the phone legend
indicates a 1x connection, however the qnc symbol that they have
listed there, doesn't show up with I make a qnc dial up connection.

It sounds as if your system is connecting to the QNC network in both
cases, but using the NA username/password on those occasions that you
are trying to connect to NA. Have you tried completely uninstalling,
then reinstalling, whatever software you are using to connect?

If you are using the Verizon Mobile Office Kit software, it stores the
user IDs and passwords in the registry at:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Smith Micro\QuickLink Mobile

For QNC, the username and passwords are both "qnc".

For NA, the username is "yournumber@vzw3g.com" and the password is
"vzw".

3 baud settings: 19.2, 115.2, and 230.4. As I said in my post with my
4400, I get TRUE data speeds around 110k as tested on toast.net. No
string init or anything special. Works everytime I'm in 1X digital areas.

There is no 'special' software that I use. The cable is from
radioshack, the only software installed is for XP to recognize the
cable as a COM port. Then, I manually setup 2 modems, 1 for qnc
another for vzw3g (the modems have different modem init strings), then
I've setup manual dial-up connections, 1 for qnc (using qnc modem) and
1 for vzw3g (using vzw3g modem)..

I can dialup using both, and both will take qnc/qnc password, however
neither will take xxxxxxxxxx@vzw3g.com/vzw password.

Check the init string to the phone.

One more item: the mok includes data compression software. This is what
really makes the 1x connection fast. It is called venturi, and it makes
connections FAST! dr

From another post you said you use the cable from RS? (not verizon anyway,
and not mobile office)... Had the same happen with the futuredial cable...
It was the setup/init strings.. Once I called QNC, it never reset the phones
speed when I called 1x until i reset the strings... Ill look for the correct
strings in my notes (changed phones, but I may have the strings written
down)...

Since you have a VX4400, have you seen the online page of all sorts of info
specifically for the 4400?

Found this in an old email message.... (express was the old name for what is
now nationalaccess/1x)
>>> try putting this in as your init string: AT$QCMDR=2
>>
>>> change it to AT$QCMDR=3 for the express network

Yes, I've checked it out in the past.
My modem string for 1x connection is AT$QCMDR=3
I think I might've heard what mvl guy replied, that they've been
shutting it down, although dunno why some we'll be singled out. I am in
NYC area.
