Hi,

I guess you should define APN before attaching to GPRS.  
You can do this with AT+CGDCONT command.

Try detaching from the GSM and then attach to the GPRS, provided your all other setting are configured.

If I remember correctly, you cannot be attached to both.

Hello stackoverflow,

Have you solved the problem? It seems to me strange according to your parameters. If your SIM card is really GPRS enabled i think it is someway an incompatibility problem. Try to use the latest gsm core software. (6.55 or 6.57)

In case of GSM voice call that modem is CLASS B so you can be attached to both GPRS and GSM. (GPRS suspended during voice call or SMS).

You can attach to GPRS without activating a PDP context.

Best Regards,

tom
