Data Roaming With Wind

I'm missing something.

I'm in Italy, and still trying to get this to work. I sent the sms to Wind to activate; I got a reply immediately saying that they had received my request and wwould send me an sms to confirm once they activate the promotion. About 12 or 14 hours later I received the confirmation.

I set up the init string: +cgdcont=1,"IP","internet.wind"
There is no where on my system to enter an APN

When I dial: *99***1# I immediately get the following message within one or two seconds of trying to dial:

Registering your computer on the network
the PPP link control protocol was terminated

It disconnects instantly.

I'm trying two methods; one is from the WinXP modem and network setup control panels; the other is from my third party cell phone software, DataPilot. I've followed the instructions from 155.it in configuring my computer.

Do I need to enter a password/username? If so, are those the same ones I use for 155.it or are they different? Is there a different number which I can tell the phone to dial?

Right now I'm using a Motorola V180 with a USB cable. The computer recognizes it on Com 4.
(I am waiting for a replacement for my V400). With the built in menu in the Motorola phone, is there anywhere I should enter any info?
