GPRS Connection on a Windows 8 Tablet Using C#

Question

I am developing an app for a Windows 8 tablet using C# and I need to write a module that creates a GPRS connection using a SIM card.

I have tried searching for this but most results I find talk about a GPRS connection either for Windows CE or Windows Mobile and I presume the code for Windows 8 would be different.

If anyone can give me some advice on how I can create this module or link me to some websites that may explain how I can achieve this I would be great full.

Thanks...

Answer 1

Assuming you're programming an app in the environment formerly known as Metro, you need these WinRT APIs. There are C# code examples provided.

This is not to be confused with the Windows 8 desktop, which has its own separate set of APIs here.

These APIs are valid for LTE, UMTS/HSPA etc as well as GPRS.
