All Around Internet Problem: Are You Experiencing This?

[myhollowworld2]

I'm in MA, maybe it's a general NE thing going on?

Same thing has been happening to me all day. I first noticed it this morning on my phone with super slow speed but with evdo connection. I hooked it up to the laptop via wifirouter and the same thing. I'm assuming its a sprint thing right now. Are any of the other people expriencing this located in NH also?

I'm in VA and so far I'm still having the same problems today, I checked to see if sprint was having outages or workorders and they don't list anything in my area.

Just got off the phone with Sprint. There's nothing going on in my area as well. The lady on tech didn't really try to offer me any advice other than taking it to a store to get it exchanged. Seeing as this is only a week old, and brand new, I'm not really looking forward to getting a refurb.

Perhaps we screwed something up in the TCP/IP settings?
Heartisall, were you tethering while/before you had this issue? Maybe something while tethering screwed this up..

Anyone else, feel free to chime in with some advice.

I am experiencing this issue as well. I am running the Silence rom and tether the device to an xp machine. Yesterday in the afternoon my internet connection started to go out on me. I gave it a day and then this morning attempted again. Nothing worked and I ended up doing a hard reset. Once it came back, I can occasionally pull up a google page, and search results come up, but once I click on a link it does not connect. I'm in the Northern Va area.

I lost all ability to access the internet via my Sprint TP2 (stock ROM) at around 10:30 eastern time this morning. Phone is working, calls are being received, texts are working, and PDANet allows a connnectionn but no data makes it through.

I also cannot access my email via my phone; has anyone had that issue as well?

Mind you, I made zero changes to my phone today, or to any software, and had no internet issues before this outage seems to have come into play.

I would really like to avoid a hard reset, and hope that this resolves itself over the course of the afternoon.

Best,
Ito

Had the same thing happen to me this morning as well. As of now (1:30 PM EST) I have data coming through, but it's still the slowest I've ever seen it . In case anyone is keeping data points, I'm in Wilmington DE.

Well, it seems that I am now not alone in this ongoing problem...So it definitely sounds like something on the Sprint end.

I recall reading a few articles a few months back saying that Sprint was going to kill all tethering done without a plan. Of course we all have the work around, but perhaps they're on to it..? Could possibly also explain the slow data if they're trying to do something on their systems.

FWIW, I actually have a tethering plan.

Besides which, I have ZERO internet access on my phone, so it doesn't seem to be a tethering issue, but rather (for me, in any event) an internet issue - unless it's my phone itself, but that doesn't seem to be the issue given what's being said in this thread.

I hope this is resolved soon; once I leave my office I'll be seriously out of touch.

Oh, my goodness, the horror!

I'm in the same boat as you, as this is my only connection to the net as well...what is going on here?

I am still getting internet on my phone, however its much slower than it used to be. I am assuming sprint must be doing something to there network. Hopefully this is not to stop tethering entirely although the poster above said he actually has a tethering plan so if he can't get it either it must be an all around Network error. I did notice that when my phone was listed as connected it did not renew the DNS in IPconfig. I flushed the DNS hoping it would force it to renew however still no luck.
