settings for metro are typically user: number@mymetropcs.com pass: metropcs

any help or suggestion is greatly appreciated
in your pap-secrets try using "metropcs" instead of your MSID and see... it is format:

USER SERVER PASS

usually we replace server with "*" and it works, but maybe this is also something we can try changing? (note: i don't know what i'm talking about)

So try:

number@mymetropcs.com * metropcs

as your /etc/ppp/pap-secrets, with the same
user number@mymetropcs.com

in options.smd1. Or try it without adding anything to options.smd1. Be creative, try everything you can.. if you figure it out, you'll help all the other MetroPCS people who may be in your shoes...

PS.. there is a carrier wiki here: http://www.androidonhtc.com/wiki/Car...twork_settings
But it has nothing for MetroPCS... in general we should try to bring it up to speed as best we can...
