US Cellular - No Data

[nebulink]

I updated my rom to NoChem 5066 and am unable to get a data connection.

I keep getting a message that user name or password are incorrect.
I went through all my epst settings and found many of them were wrong. I changed them to what I had on record and modified the rest according to what I could find on this site for settings. I also contacted US Cellular and we verified my msid and home sid were correct.

Any ideas on how to correct this?
They want to send me a new phone but I have no way of flashing this unit back to factory since US Cellular does not have a flash.

Thanks

Did you check the setting in Start > Settings > Connection tab > Connections > Manage existing connections > Modem tab? Check that out and make sure all is as should be remembering that the User Name is you 10 digit ph# with uscc.net (##########.uscc.net) and the pasword is just your 10 digit ph#

This information was not entered.

I entered it, but I still get a message "Cannot connect. Please check your username, password, or other credentials and try again."

Any other ideas?

FYI, they changed my msid. I changed this and noticed that my security settings reverted back to msid @ 3gc.com
Should this be msid @ uscc.net or phone number @ uscc.net and I assume the password is my 10 digit phone number.

OK, I figured out the problem.
you need to use your msid for username and password within the EPST security settings. there is no need to put your username and password settings in the connection area since it uses the EPST security settings.

Had the same problem.

Try this,

EPST
Security

What are the 2 URL Values in the security tab on EPST?

Make sure that the:

HDR AN AUTH User ID (LONG) is your ESN#@uscc.net
HDR AN AUTH Password (LONG) is your ESN#
PPP USER ID is **********@uscc.net

i don't see this anywhere! and i dont know the passkey to edit anything in the epst... can you please explain this process a little better.. im lost and very frustrated now

Its ok...... I was furious with my phone when I was trying to get the EVDO to work......(it survived a tossing)

Any way In EPST there or ##778 there is View and Edit. You need to chose Edit. In the security it should be 000000 (six zero's) unless *228 was dialed and updated the phone. And from there you need to view info. There you will see the Security Settings.

If the six zero's don't work you should be able to sweet talk a USCC rep into coughing up the EPST code.

ok, sorry im being impatient, but i got into the security and everything matches correctly the only difference is there is a password with symbols and letters.. so why itsn' t it working?
