IP address
Your IP address is allocated dynamically via DHCP- you do not need to set this. We are unable to offer a static IP address.
DNS

DNS settings should be set to ‘automatically obtain’ – there are only rare instances where Orange settings should be used. For information, the first set of Orange DNS settings are for IPStream customers, the second set for LLU.
Domain name service is dynamic.
If connecting to a router, and need DNS settings for home networking, use the IP address or your router, i.e. * 192.168.1.1
If Orange domain name server (DNS) addresses are required, you should use:
195.92.195.94 and 195.92.195.95
Or, if you experience problems with the above, use:
193.36.79.101 and 193.36.79.100

I have removed my wanadoo internet connection by mistake.
Can I put in my original wanadoo set up disc and re set up as I did the first time.
You most probably can reset the connection settings with the CD provided by Wanadoo, though it is impossible for me to say for sure if this will fix the problem you are having because I do not have enough detail regarding the actual problem. Saying that you have ‘removed’ the connection does not give me enough information to diagnose your problem. For all I know, you may have just unplugged your network cable or boxed up the modem! Good Luck
Dear sirs I’ve got an dial up account with orange and I would like to send and receive emails through
U iPhone can you send me the settings from incoming to outgoing servers hosts ports etc thank you
Sirs,
My outlook Express account has stopped and I am asked to put in my user name and Password. Doing this just brings the same box back asking for the same information. If I go into Orange I can pick my e-mail up. Can you re-installl me in Outlook express please?
@DerekOsborne – The chances are that your email service provider’s system was down. If the problem persists, let me know and I will see if I can help.
I have been retrieving emails using Outlook for several years but recently I have noticed that not all but some (most?) of my orange emails never get downloaded. The same happens if I send a Microsoft test email – some are received and some stay on the orange server. I can only access these emails via the orange website.
Can you help, please?

Eileen,
I would recommend contacting Orange about this problem. Sounds like it is a problem on their end… no surprise.
If you have reached the end of your contract, I would recommend changing service providers alltogether though and sending out a message to everyone with your new (hotmail perhaps) email address.
Good luck
Eileen,
You are not alone with this problem, I have been having problems for over a week and despite several emails to Orange they still keep trying to blame Microsoft, firewall and virus software.
The problem does seem to be limited to sending & receiving Orange / Freeserve / Fsnet addresses. From what I have been able to determine I cannot send or receive any mail from “Orange” email addresses yet all other email is unaffected.
I did notice that the “Envelope-to” in the headers of the mail that will not download all have “fu3000000000000000000330075@0110.back3c-mail02-01.me-wanadoo.net” rather than my email address.
I have had to leave Orange home, after being told I needed a contract to keep my address live I now find thats not true. However I can receive e-mails and spam but not send any. What settings should I have in the accounts to get this working. I am extremely Anry at the way Orange have operated with regard to my account ie:- (1) telling me I needed an acount when I didn’t (2) that I had to have an 18 month account when they only set up a 12 month one (3) it does n’t work any way. I have therefore payed £360 for something I didn’t have. I look forward to your help ( in English please )
Dissatisfied customer!!!!!
Yet another problem with Orange mail and the fsnet.co.uk address. When will Orange stop blaming everybody else and fix the problem!

PLEASE HELP?
