contact Cingular at http://www.cingular.com or call 1-800-331-0500 or 1-877-707-9204. I recently made the change. After listing to the
voice activated prompts, I was patched into two real live people who were able to handle the problem. Hope this helps.
It’s a bit hard since you have not listed the NEC model number. Cingular works on GSM850/1900 Mhz (which are the North American GSM bands)
If the buzz you bought is a European model that is
GSM900/1800 (dual band) – The buzz will not work
GSM900/1800/1900 (tri-band) – The buzz will work in Cingulars 1900mhz areas. If you are in a Cingular 850Mhz area, the buzz will not work
GSM850/900/1800/1900 (quad-Band) Buzz will work anyware in the world you have GSM service
Check your phones spec’s against what I posted higher than, that might answer your question.
Anyother option would be in your phones menu, look for network settings to see if you can select the network manuqlly. if you have that, let the buzz quest for the availible GSM networks in your area. All else fails, email me the phones model and I can research it for you
