unable to get wap working with fido prepaid account - MDA, XDA, 1010 General

Hey everyone.....
I'm a newbie so please be gentle....
I've had my phone for about 2weeks now. Last week I got it unlocked but now I'm having problems with the wap connection from fido.
Here is what I have.
t-mobile xda with fido sim
running xda-developers special edition rom v1.2
rom ver: 3.17.03 eng
rom date: 05/15/03
radio ver: 6.24.00
Protocol: 324e4
I talked to fido and they told me that because I am on prepaid they don't offer GPRS but I can connect to wap ??? I am still learning about the two, but I don't think you need to have both, but I could be wrong. anyway I talked to them and they enabled mms and wap on my account about 3 days ago so I should be able to access it by now.
here is the information they gave me.
APN: wap.fido.ca or internet.fido.ca
IP: 205.151.011.011
user: fido
pwd: fido
port: 9201
#: *99#
so I've tried multiple combinations of the above but nothing seems to work, can anyone tell me if they have had any luck getting connected with fido prepaid and how you did it.
Here is what I tried.
settings --> connection --> connections
new...
under general --> change name to wap settings
under modem --> new...
rename to wap
select a modem --> tried both celluar line
--> clicked advanced left port settings
--> TCP/IP settings
--> select use specific IP address
--> entered 205.151.011.011
--> also tried use server assigned IP address
--> Name servers
--> select use specific IP address
--> entered 205.151.011.011
--> also tried use server assigned IP address
clicked OK to accept advanced settings
clicked NEXT
--> left country code blank
--> left area code blank
--> entered *99# for phone number
--> also tried wap.fido.ca for phone number
clicked FINISHED
clicked PROXY SETTINGS
--> selected this network connects to the internet
--> selected this network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet
--> entered 205.151.011.011
--> also tried it with wap.fido.ca
--> tried setting wap ip and port with above information
when I try to connect it says dialing and then always comes back with there is no answer at the number you have dialed.....etc....
