Hai,

```
      In wavecom Q2686, How can i ensure my GPRS connection is established correctly. The "adl_gprsSetup" API is returning "OK"

    Currently, i am trying to make a call using GPRS to ensure the GPRS connectivity.

```

Am trying,

```
1. adl_callSetup("<mobile number>",ADL_CALL_MODE_DATA); and
2.adl_callSetupExt("<mobile number>",ADL_CALL_MODE_DATA,ADL_PORT_GPRS_BASE)  

```

whether this approach is correct or not?

If NO means, in which way i can ensure my GPRS connection.

Thank you,

---

Remember that GPRS is a packet link - so it is not really helpful to talk in terms of a “call”.

Why not use WIP?
