APN: Access Point ~ This can be edited on an UNLOCKED iPhone under settings.
Proxy ~ Additional settings on the phone but not available on the iPhone
1. Tmobile Web
APN: wap.voicestream.com
Proxy: 216.155.165.50:8080
2. Tmobile Total Internet
APN: internet2.voicestream.com or internet3.voicestream.com
Proxy: NONE
3. Blackberry unlimited add on
APN: wap.voicestream.com or blackberry.voicestream.com
Proxy: NONE
Now see the difference?? both total internet and blackberry plan requires no Proxy settings on the phone. iPhone can only edit your APN but not the proxy setting which renders the tmobileweb inaccessible...
