It's not just the iphone... tried it in a data card as well. Same result.

Ok, well this can explain my issue then.

Unreal, the day I sign up for this, it breaks

Anyone with a real sidekick can confirm they can access the internet? Or down for you too?

Went into a T-Mobile store to sign up for a Flexpay account. I was told by the rep that he had received an email that said that using the Sidekick PrePaid plan on a non-Sidekick was fixed.

Well, there goes any thoughts I had of buying an iPhone and putting it on the SK plan.

My service is working just fine, I am using a Sidekick 3.

That's what it looks like.

Ok, looks like they did fix it. Somewhat...

My knowledge of how routing works on mobile networks is very limited. But what looks like what is happening is we are still able to access the hiptop apn, but it is just denying us web traffic. Gateway access to the internet is still working. So I found some random web proxy on the internet, and internet works fine through it, but very slow.

So, gonna set up my own personal proxy and see how it works.

So what can be done now? How can I get internet access on prepaid?
