How to connect to internet without using WiFi

[Cioffi]

Which do i use HSDPA/GPRS/3G

My phone is not currently configured to do either so setup parameters would be appreciated!

which one do you have the sprint version or ATT fuze?

if he's running HSDPA/GPRS/3G he's probably on a GSM network, so probably AT&T. Unforunately I have the Sprint version so I don't know how much this applies to you, but in my Touch Pro theres a icon in the settings that says "Update Profile." I had my internet crap out on me, but after I reprovisioned it, it was fine. Theres a ## phone code to do this over the air, but since I don't use AT&T I don't know what it is. If you can't find information on either, call up AT&T and ask them to reprovision your data for you.

I don't think HSDPA is rolled out in the states for phones yet, though I could be wrong. I think the AT&T touch pros use normal 3G, though again, I could be wrong. GPRS is the wicked old school data connection that the first gen iPhones used.

Firstly thanks for your help.

Im a British user of Touch Pro, so whether my model is the same as yours i do not know, all i know is that i cannot connect to the internet at all without wifi, when i pay top GBP for a phone i cant go on the internet with. most phones come with it pre installed!

Yikes! Have you tried contacting your carrier?

Hmm... you don't have a connection in Start>Settings>Connections>Connections?

You would probably have better luck contacting your carrier. They may have to update your account or something along those lines.

Yup, you need to contact your carrier. You have WAP where your internet connection should show up. They may need to instruct you on provisioning your phone for internet.

Did you buy the phone from them, or from a 3rd party? Most european carriers don't sell phones just plans.

You will need to visit your carriers website and get the WAP connection settings and manually input them.
