Wierd problem with internet and possible solution

[Guest banderdragon]

So, my first inkling on a problem was when MyPhone told me it could not connect to the server, this was last night. I kinda said Meh, its a beta service and probably down for maintenance. So, this morning i tried to manually sync and same error. So, i decided to see if there was anything posted on the site, but Opera never connected.

At that point i was a little worried. So i tried Google maps. The aGPS worked fine, but it too could not connect to the internet. Finally i checked PIE and it Dialed and connected a treat. now they all work.

My confusion is over why did PIE fix my connection. I think my phone is set to auto-dial for internet, at least it has before. I am fairly sure there is a setting in the phone to have it auto-dial for internet w/e if needs it, but i have never had to set that on a flashed ROM. Anyone seen this happen before. I mean, its great that i have a work-around but it this keeps happening it is gonna start to annoy me.

Using 6.5 ROM? i've had similar issues before where things set to auto-connect don't, but normally the phone will say the Broadband Access is still active too. Sometimes manually disconnecting it, or just launching the right program will fix it, for me i use Skyfire.
