I am using a telit ge863-gps to relay gps co-ordinates through to a web server via GPRS.
I know that there are quite a few people on this forum who are doing similar projects, I'd just like to find out how do you go about checking if there is GPRS available?
Sometimes the GPRS link goes down (for whatever reason) and I'd like to my project to not attempt a connection if there is no GPRS, otherwise it just sits at the GPRS activation command until it times out (150s is a long time to wait, and a long time in which the project can't do any major tasks involving the Telit)
