O2 settings for iPhone SIM in LG phone

I got a new 3G S, but still have 6 months to go on my 3G contract, so I've put the 3G SIM in my daughter's LG KS360 so she can get the use of the free minutes and texts.

I'm trying to set her up with data settings. From the web I gather that they are:

APN: mobile.o2.co.uk
User: vertigo
Password: password

The problem is every time I try to check email on her phone using the above settings I get "DNS error".

I DID notice that when punching in the above details, the KS360 also has 2 extra settings for "Primary address" and "Secondary address", which are both set to 000.000.000.000. I suspect this is the cause of my grief.

Any ideas?

Re: O2 settings for iPhone SIM in LG phone

Primary DNS: 192.113.200.200
Secondary DNS: 192.113.200.201

Remember the iPhone SIM is for use in an iPhone and so O2 are likely to remove the free data once they notice the SIM is being used in another handset. The result if this is your account will then be charged for any data usage.
