Just recently (last few months) I noticed I am no longer able to surf the net or connect my Agile messenger anymore on my MPx220. I changed absolutely nothing from several months back when it worked and nothing works now. Just using the standard wap.voicestream APN, no WAP proxy needed. I logged onto my t-mobile and could have sworn my plan used to say free WAP included. Have they completely dropped it now as I can no longer get online anymore? If I add a WAP proxy I get the damn signup page for t-mobileweb and t-zones.. what gives?

Wow, you were still getting it until that recently? Be happy you got it for that long! You must not have made any changes to your plan in a while. Did you call T-Mobile or change your plan at all close to when it stopped working? The free WAP has been gone for a couple years now. It stopped working for me around that time when I changed my plan minutes, and they were able to remove it. You'll need to get at least the $5.99 plan to get online.

damn.. one of the things thats kept me with them so long now gone.. I added the 5.99 plan and set the WAP proxy to 8080 and HTTP and then IE connects to WAP network... this works for IE but nothing else "agile etc" so if i only had access to the WAP APN before how did they impose the firewall restrictions? anyway to run all traffic bound for the net through a socks proxy running on my home machine? anyone scanned to see what ports are open?

How did you set the proxy in IE? I don't see an option to do that. I'm using an HP IPAQ 6515 (WM2003).

idk if your talking about the t-zones thing, were you could check your account and all that, but i had that on my phone like a month or two back, but i lost phone and now have unlocked blackjack so i cant get the t zones page any more.

i have been using the net on this phone and am scared im going to get billed like a billion dollars cuz i used the internet for a while the other day and it was on the gprs setting, i don't have any data plan sad.gif!
if its on the wap setting that wont be free anymore either?!

Be sure to go to your account online and check for data charges. It can be killer if you don't have a data plan.
