View Full Version : T-Mobile Browsing Problems

After several minutes of successful browsing, things stop working. All of the sudden, if I attempt to access a page, I get a, "The page you are trying to open cannot be found" error. After this occurs, I must disconnect and re-connect to GPRS to be able to browse again.

I can cause this to happen at will: just browse for a few minutes, then bam, I get the error.

Other facts:

-I do not have problems when I browse using my AT&T Sim and gprs
-The backlight flickers once prior to my receiving the error
-sometimes when I start and stop the phone, I acquire Cingular instead of T-Mobile (does this mean I am roaming?)
-I can still receive email at the point that I receive the error. I connect to e-mail via an IP address, not a server name

Perhaps something is wrong with T-Mobile's DNS server???

Please help shed some light on this frustrating problem.

Thanks.

I cured the problem.

Under the modem settings for the connnection, tap and hold the modem setting. A context menu will pop up. Make sure "Always Dial" is NOT selected.

Good luck, and let me know if this works.

PS I received this advice from T-Mobile Cust. Care. They have been doing a great job solving my issues!
