odd problem - Networking

hey guys, just wanted to know if anyone else is having a problem connecting to the internet. moreso through GPRS
I reset my phone and I know I have all the settings correct but I CANNOT browse pages. I am connected and have 4 bars but I cannot use IE to surf (or firefox for that matter) I cannot use my gmail settings on Poutlook either.
Any ideas? I had it working a few nights ago but now nothing....
its the prepaid svc so maybe they found a way to fix the tzones=free internet thing... hope not
anyhoo, thanks guys

Same problem
I too have the same problem with T-Mobile. I can no longer surf the web on my 8125. Worked great last week ,but will no longer work this week. I have tried to reset and reinstall the setting, but to no avail. Maybe T-Mobile has finally closed that loophole or the system is under repair. My phone shows full signal and the "E" symbol for edge, but will not work.

not again

Ok, I just moved from San Diego back to Mobile, AL and just before I left, my gprs web stopped working. I could still go to tzones but no internet or modem use.
Now, as soon as I moved to AL it all worked again (yay) but....
just yesterday it all came crashing down again; same problem
I can "connect" to the gprs/edge and it will access tzones but when i try to load a PIE page or go to google maps, weatherbar, etc, it will not connect. IE will give the error
"page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the connection was lost. Check the conection and then try again."
the wireless modem part also no longer works. pc says "connected" but I get no data rx
did tmo fry our free internet finally? if so, how did it follow me? lol
PLEASE HELP ME ON THIS ONE

Mine used to play up on O2 this way - same message as you are getting, until I discovered a better port number. I also have found that maybe every 5 months something goes wrong and it will say "connecting" forever. This can only be sorted by deleting the network card and re-entering the settings. You would think, since they are identical to the last set I put in, that it still would not work - not so, just putting them all back in sorts it.
Another problem I faced initially was that the internet published settings for O2 were not correct on 90% of sites. I had to contact a fellow O2 user to get him to go through his settings which were different from the published ones.
Of course this may have absolutely nothing to do with your problem.

IE Connectivity Issues (Help)

So, I can't seem to find anyone that can help me. I have an 8525 with the official WM6 release. In December, a month after installing WM6, IE stopped being able to access webpages.
Whenever it starts, it loads the default AT&T/Windows Mobile home screen. If I click either of those links or type in a desired web address, it creates a data connection (sometimes 3G, sometimes edge), says "connecting...", locating... opening... and nothing loads. The screen stays white. I know that my data connection works fine, as I can use google maps, live mobile and send/receive e-mail. I'm not sure where the problem is, but I assume it is a setting issue. A couple days ago, I performed a hard reset and still encountered the problem. I have verified that my settings are per AT&T's posted recommendation.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Thanks!
I should also note that if I connect to a WIFI signal, IE works, so it is definitely a settings issue. I just can't seem to figure out how to correct it and I haven't been able to find anyone who could help either. Any assistance would be appreciated!
thank you
I have the same exact problem. I solved it by installing Opera, which works fine.
Try looking in start>settings>connections>connections
then advanced tab
go to select networks
on the first drop down, make sure you have at&t's media net selected.
Hope that helps

Atnt pay-go media net hsdpa help

Hi all, need help with my liberated shift. It was working fine for the past 2 wks that I have had it. 3G worked flawlessly on both wm/vista.
I had installed Mozilla firefox browser on the vista side 2 days ago and now I can't get a connection. The wm side shows the connection to be 3g but I am not recieving any push mails or weather updates at all.
When I tried to manually send/receive I get an syncro error with no internet connection, yet the display shows 3g?
On the vista side, it just shows the connection to be local only. I uninstalled the Firefox/restarted but this problem is not going away. By the way..I have the performance at the vista side set to "high performance" as well. Please help me out...
Thank you
Same problem here since 5 minutes, re-installed german ROM, Provider E-Plus BASE, Data flat.
No idea, what happen...
What is really strange is that I am showing full bars @ 3g on the wm side...hopefully someone can bring some light to this matter...but glad that it's not a hardware issue as I am really enjoying this device..despite the battery life.
I had the same problem. It went away after updating connection settings in WM. My shift seem to periodically need that (or perhaps the "switch off..." that follows). Sorry if that was an obvious suggestion, but it realy helped me from a similar problem.
Also, the new usb... driver included in the driver update is said to ignore powersettings on vista. Since upgrading, I have run on powersawer mode without any network problems (provided that I safley remove usb stuff like SD or Lan, before hibernating vista). Have anyone else seen that?
as usual..thanks to all for the help... the real culprit was myself, as i had forgotten to pay the bill for the data service...all is good now... hehe.. so the only item that remains to be solved for me with this great device is the battery...all else is good!
thanks

Need help with internet connection issue on Artemis

For the past couple of weeks, I've been having issues keeping an internet connection. To describe, I have push email set up so I'm always connected. I seem to get emails fine and I always have an "e" above my signal strength to show that I'm connected. But When I actually want to go to a website, it will connect but after I click on a few links, the next link will just hang. I'm using Opera mini, and after a few pages I get the network test page. Sometimes it will come back and say "you have a working network", and other times it just won't start again.
I was thinking it was just my service (T-Mobile USA) because I use a proxy configuration that's not really ment for full internet access. But I noticed that I was having the same issue when connected to wifi networks. Then I tried PIE and I had similar issues connecting with it as well.
I did just replace my housing. That's the only major change I can think of. I hope this isn't a hardware issue. Anyway, emails still come through but surfing forums has been pretty much shut down. Anyone have any idea of what it could be?
BTW, I've been using the same ROM for over 7 months (O2 Premium Plus) and never had this issue before. No new programs installed since problem either.

Data Connection Problems?

Has anyone else had the problem that you go online and surf the web then maybe a couple of hours later you launch Opera again to go online and it just hangs (the data connection not opera)?
The only way to make it connect is to turn off the data connection then it will log back on...

yeh iv been getting that problem for sometime now, its frustrating, sometimes i even have to soft reset to get the data connection working. It shows that the data connection is fine and everything seems connected, but then when you try and update weather or browse the web (anything that uses data) you end up getting an error,
its very similar to the problem you get on your home broadband, your router shows its connected and your dsl and everything is active yet you get a white page on your browser and then you have to reset your router, very very frustrating, so i understand your problem exactly.
I'm wondering if this is anything to do with changing cells on your network?
When you travel to a different cell location although the network says you are still connected (and you can still send/receive calls) the data network has actually dropped and needs refreshing?
I suppose what we are after is a program that can refresh the data network every few mins - don't know if this is possible though?
Here in Germany o2 has a problem with the Qualcomm Chipset. I also have hanging connections. A workaround is to disable HSDPA. Maybe you have the same problem?
same problem here (also o2 Germany)
the 3G icon is there and the bubble says there is a connection for x minutes but opera or google maps mobile report a missing connection after a short time of usage. i have to kill the connection manually and after the connection is reestablished it works again for few minutes...... this is so frustrating...
GPRS
Same problem in Czech republic with O2 provider.
At this moment I found as a fastest way to switch off and on the radio.
I'm using most of the time GPRS connection and this problem is about two times per day so reconnection every day two times is really annoying.
Hopefully somebody will find solution soon...
My problem is slightly different. Sometimes (after using Opera or not) I try to refresh weather and it says "refreshing" but the data connection won't connect (it shows antenna, no arrows with H or 3G). I must then soft reset the PDA to make it work. Any solutions or similar experiences?
Blackstone data connection problems

I am also wondering if this problem is limited to Blackstone (HTC Touch HD) or extends to HD2 also?
I have noticed that no one ahs posted any solution.
Comeon senior guys PLEASE help us out here.
Many thanks in advance.
Kam2kam, question, What rom are you using, and are you using activesync? If so, have you downloaded any email attachments? I was having the same problem where a couple of times a day I would have to soft reset. The connection would look fine, but if you tried to update anything or browse the net you were met with an error. It was frustrating. I finally narrowed the issue down to activesync and the new manila documents tab. My theory was that when I downloaded an attachment to view in the documents tab activesync would continue to sync the attachment each time it polled for new mail. Since activesync is often slow to sync attachments, my connection to the VPN would timeout before it could finish syncing causing the dreaded "waiting for network". My thought was my VPN connection would freeze thereby preventing my carrier internet from being able to connect; since, at least for me, you cannot have two different data session running simultaneously, i.e. VPN connection and the carrier's connection. The only cure was to soft reset. Ultimately what I did was hunt down any and all email attachments that I had dowloaded, and deleted them all. Since then my data connection went from freezing up twice a day to zero times a day and it's now been over two weeks.
You may not have the same set up as I do, but perhaps there may be something similar going on.
I hope that helps a bit.
