T-Mobile W&W Pro - CTRL+F5


Recommended Posts

Posted

Anybody else encountered what seems to be a downgrade in service on the old T-Mobile W&W Pro ?

I now cannot download full images and when using my Vario II as a modem. Every image I load is poor quality and I need to reload the page with CTRL+F5 to get a decent image.

I've seen a post somewhere on the web that indicates that this is a service provider applied restriction.

This is new to me and has only started occuring since I started to use my Vario II as a serious modem since mid-January.

Your views ?

I believe that this is because T-Mobile use a transparent image proxy to reduce the amount of data downloaded over the network. If you search on the forums at www.3g.co.uk (I think) you will find some more info. Also look in the sticky thread of this very forum relating to T-Mobile proxy, I am sure this contains some info.

As the intention is to ensure evernyone has good speeds I don't think it is possible to get round it. In any case, IMHO, for standard surfing you never really need full image quality anyway.
