I'm not sure right now but maybe orange works in 1800 Mhz band, but I can say that your old 5110 (that is not dualband) can't work with this frecuency. In Spain there's the same problem with the operator AMENA... you can´t use this company's card in a 5110 due the working frecuency.

Moli is correct, 5110 is GSM900 ONLY. Works in the UK with O2 and Vodaphone ONLY. Nokia 5130 and Nokia 5146, work with Orange, T-Mobile and Virgin sims, because thesde phones are GSM1800.

Therefore you phone will only work with O2 or Vodaphone period.
