APN settings for Talkmobile on iphone

Can anyone help on settings to use internet with pay-as-you-go from Talkmobile in UK for an unlocked i-phone 2.1? It used to work but somehow lost the possibility to connect to internet / mail while on the go when no wi-fi is available. I called Talkmobile and they couldn't give exact settings for iphone, but said I should have the following settings:
APN: payg.talkmobile.co.uk
User: wap
Password: wap
Any help would be appreciated, as my home internet from Virginmedia has stopped working recently too and I'm totally disconnected!

Hi there,

It seems Talkmobile: Get Your Settings for Mobile Internet and MMS allows you to enter your phone number and they text you your internet settings.

Hope this helps

Thanks, but I tried that already. For some reason I never get an sms back.

Re: APN settings for Talkmobile on iphone

Well, I was told by Talkmobile to use APN payg.talkmobile.co.uk, user WAP password WAP (capitals). Didn't work as i thought, but then I thought about rebooting the iphone (duh!) and now I can connect to the internet. So I guess that was the issue in the end, not the settings. Maybe this may help others.
