the Data connection settings on alltel is as follows

username: phonenumber@alltel.net
password: alltel

what is this information for verizon, because now my alltel data connection doesn't work

That's weird, mine is blank in both username and password.
If I input that information,
it will not work.

There was a post that I jsut read a few minutes ago say that there was a blackout with data for alltel users, but I haven't encountered this at all...
