Qtel's settings for mobile internet?

I cant seem to access the internet through my Iphone. I've called 111 and they gave me the settings which would be:
General>Networks>Cellular Data Network>APN:gprs.qtel
Still no signs of getting the internet going. Anyone else have this problem with Iphone? I'm on Shary value pack btw if that info helps.

changed to EDGE still the same no IP address from QTEL.
I tried so many diff things, Reset all network settings Everything. Did a search and found that other people have same problem since 4.3 update. They gave some workarounds but alas that did not work.
Then I just gave up, towards the end of the day around 15:00 it just started working again, without me doing anything. I suspect its a QTel issue, but as usual they are no help.
Mines working fine again.

/-a-t-/smoke the fix for your problem has been out for sometime now.
You can also just turn flight mode on for a few seconds and then off again that should do the same thing as rebooting.
