SMT5600 & T-Zones

[Guest QuantumEagle]

I got my SMT5600 a couple of weeks ago and unlocked it for use on T-Mobile. Last week I decided to try thr $4.99 T-Zones to see what it would get me. I tried configuring it my sell using settings described on this forum to no avail. I finally called T-Mobile last Monday and they walked me through the process. So Monday night, Tuesday and most of Wednesday I get POP3 and HTTP access with no problems.

Wednesday afternoon I try to connect again and it isn't working. I could tell the settings that were given to me were no longer there so on Thursday night I called T-Mobile back and they went over the settings again. This time I copied them down so incase the phone dropped them again I could reconfigure it myself. So Thursday night and until just before 9 Friday morning I could again access the web and POP3.

Then sometime after 9 Friday morning it stopped working and I got a message that the phone couldn't make connection and to verify network connectivity. I called T-Mobile and they just said that they were having a massive T-Zones problem allover the country. I called several more times Friday and several times on Saturday and was given the same story. Sunday morning I tried connecting again and one time it gave me the error message but proceeded to display a HTML page. After the page was displayed it wouldn't go any further.

I called T-Mobile and this time the tech didn't mention a network problem. You would have thought if it had been such a far reaching problem (down over 48 hours) that she would have mentioned it. Anyway, she verified the settinga I had been given but I still was not able to connect. She then said that since the SMT5600 wasn't a T_Mobile certified phone that she couldn't help me anymore with it.

So of course my question here is does anyone have any ideas what Is going on? Did anyone hear of a massive T-Zones problem in the US south east(Atlanta)? I know at one time the tech made mention that she could tell the phone was sending data streams as opposed to wap I guess. I can't even get wap content. Thanks if you have any ideas.
