Kannel: Compatibility

This page contains a list of different WAP clients that have been tested with the latest stable release of Kannel. It also has simple instructions how to configure these clients to be used with Kannel.

Please send reports to devel@kannel.org if you know of WAP devices and emulators that works or don't with Kannel. Try to make the reports as detailed as possible.

Phones and emulators that work with Kannel

Nokia 6210

Same as Nokia 7110

Nokia 7110

To configure a Nokia 7110 to use the gateway, fill in the following (note that you need to provide your own dial-up line):

Home page: http://wap.wapit.com/ (or any other WML page)
Connection type: Continuous
Connection security: Off
Bearer: Data
Dial-up number: (your dial-up line)
IP address: (IP number of the host running bearer box)
Authentication type: Normal
Data call type: (analog or isdn, depending on your line)
Data call speed: Autobauding
User name: (username for your dial-up line)
Password: (password for your dial-up line)

After you have modified the profile, activate it and load the home page.

Ericsson R320

Works in connectionless mode.

Ericsson R380

Works in connectionless mode with Kannel 0.10.3, Works also in connection oriented mode with Kannel 0.11.3 and newer.

Motorola TalkAbout T2288

Works only in connection oriented mode.

Motorola Timeport P7389

(E) Nokia WAP Toolkit 2.0

From the Toolkit's menus choose:

Toolkit->Device Settings->Communication->Use WAP Gateway Connection
The Gateway Address should be the IP where the bearerbox is running.

(E) Nokia WAP Toolkit 1.2 & 1.3b

From the Toolkit's menus choose:

Toolkit->Preferences->Communication->Use WAP Gateway->Gateway Address.
Click Use Connection oriented mode (9201).
The Gateway Address should be the IP where the bearerbox is running.

The Nokia 7110 emulator in the 1.3b version can be used with Kannel (use the same configuration instructions as with the Nokia SDK), however it loses the gateway settings every time the phone emulator restarts. This is extremely annoying and makes the emulator almost impossible to use.

(E) Nokia SDK 2.1x

You can configure the Nokia WAP SDK (v2.1x) to use connection oriented mode, but you can't do it from the SDK's menus. You have configure it in the emulator phone. Like this:

Press: Menu->NaviRoller->Settings->Select Default->NaviRoller->Edit

Homepage: (Any wml page)
Connection type: Continuous (This is the connection oriented mode)
Connection security: Off
Bearer: Data
Dial-up number: 091111111 (You have to put any number here or else it won't work!)
IP address: (IP number of the host running bearer box)
Authentication type: Normal
Data call type: Analog or ISDN (This has no effect)
Data call speed: 14400
User name: (leave blank)
Password: (leave blank)

The settings will be saved so you don't have to do this configuration every time you start the SDK.

Known problems:

Even when you have configured the Nokia SDK to use connection oriented mode the emulator says: Server started, listening on port 9200. But this is not true (a little bug in the emulator). It will listen to the port 9201.

(E) Edge WAPman for both Windows and PalmOS

It is a little bit unstable.

(E) Motorola ADK 1.1

From the ADK Simulator's menus choose

Settings->Mobile Link Settings

Choose: Connect through Wap Gateway

Gateway IP Address: (IP where bearerbox is running)

Port: 9201 (Connection oriented mode)

NOTE: Motorola ADK 1.0 doesn't support the use of external gateways. You have to use version 1.1 at least.

(E) Phone.com UP.SDK 4.0

Change to the directory where you installed your UP.SDK.

E.g. in windows:

cd C:\Program Files\Phone.com\UPSDK40

Start the SDK with the 'nonsecure' option from the command line in a terminal:

upsim -nonsecure

In this case, the UP.Simulator will attempt to connect with the gateway using the standard non-secure port (9201).

In your kannel configuration file add a line for device-home e.g.:

device-home = "http://wap.wapit.com/"

In your Phone.com SDK browser change the UP Link IP to match your IP where the bearerbox is running:

Settings->UP-Link Settings

Choose: UPLink 1 (IP where your bearerbox is running)

(E) AU Systems Browser on PalmOS

Works in connectionless mode.

(E) Ericsson R380s Emulator 3.0

WinWAP 3.0

From the menu choose:

Edit -> Options -> General

Set the connection mode to 'Gateway mode'.

Edit -> Options -> Gateway

Set the 'Gateway IP/Host name' to the IP where your bearerbox is running.

Set the 'Connection Port/Mode' to 'Connection oriented' mode.

Set the 'Homepage' to the default WML page you want.

Click 'Save' and you are ready to start surfing.
