First of all....2.4MB is just EVDO Rev.0. Sprint and Verizon have that too. It's nothing special.

Second, I asked you if they have data plans...I didn't say they didn't.

ok...yes. they have fast internet.....

So you're trying to connect to alltell's data network and you're getting errors? You shouldn't have to dial a 9 digit number to connect to the cell network... I believe Alltel uses #777 just like sprint... your user name and pass should be in the phone when you activated it... if not you should probably call alltel

no, i don't want to use up my minutes at alltel with the #777 so i want to dial a 9 digit number instead it's slower but good enough to check emails..
i used it at all times with my 700wx treo

Your not making sense here... CDMA devices such as the Mogul don't use your plan minutes at all. They charge you for usage in one of two ways.. you either get an unlimited data plan, and pay the 15,20 bux or whatever Alltel charges a month OR you can probably have it set up for casual data - where you only get charged for what you use. Your plan minutes have NOTHING at all to do with your data access. :)

I agree with Krazy. I have alltels data plan and it DOES NOT charge for minutes when connected to the data, even in 1x. I do a lot of traveling and hit 1x all the time and have never been charged minute usage for data. One other thing you may want to do is update your PRL. Search for alltel and you will find a thread in the apache section that has a list of prls. I'm currently using 40023 which is a prl for the laptop data cards. It allows roaming on sprints evdo. That may help with the speed in your area. If alltel is charging you for minutes when connected you probably don't have the data plan or it is set up wrong. May want to call customer service.

No, i don't have a data plan.... i'm using the voice only and the mobile axcess for web...

If I remember correctly the axxess is $19.99 a month. If you change your plan to the smart choice plan that has unlimited data, nights and weekend at 7pm, my circle and unlimited messaging for about the same fees when you add all that to the voice plan. Might want to look into. This phone was designed to have mobile web as part of it.

I don't need more data then using up my minutes, i do most of it night and weekend which doesn't use minutes

Ok as to your original question what you need to do is go to settings/connections/connections. In ther you will find add new modem connection. Click on that and it should walk you through the setup for your isp.
