T-Mobile UK GPRS problem? W'n'W Plus and Max mainly

[phsnake]

I'm not sure, but i want to ask if is anyone experiencing some GPRS problems. I can connect to inet w/o probs, i can browse web...., but i cannot connect to IRC(using wmirc or pirc), ICQ or MSN(im+435) or i have troubles with ftp(resco I tried passive and active mode) Am I tho only one or something similar is happenig to others? I'm using HTC-Uni(latest WM6 build 17....)

IRC is blocked as far as i know, unless you use wnw+ or wnw-max. IM apps arent allowed just as much as VoIP over webnwalk. :(

i use wnw, on contract dont know if its wnw+. it worked a week ago?suddenly stopped. fucking t-mobil.(maybe because they had to pay £200 for inconvenience)will call them

[mrvanx]

ive heard a few reports of this today, seems tmob might be cracking down on it??

I havent been able to use irc / stream music etc.... since getting my contract (about 3 weeks ago)

i cannot use ftp as well, just thinking if those bastards didnt start blocking all ports except for 21, 80, IMAP, SMTP, POP3 :-( if yes i'll chec my contract and will take some legal actions ( I love compensation for inconvinience)

:( Hello everyone, ive been trying to follow these T-mobile UK GPRS problems, related post because im in the same boat. My msn messenger wont work and ive given up, (use webmessenger: works fine though). Yahoo messenger will not allow me to make pc 2 pc call any more but works for chatting.

However strange, i am begining to suspect T-mobile UK as they are obliged to do, are cracking down on VOIP / IRC protocols.

Also need to mention that skype and msn messenger works fine from my SPV M3100 so its does confuse me a bit.

Now im wondering should i delete this post A.S.A.P before some t-mobile network engineer see's it and gets to work ?:o Im only a student(as good as pensioner: financially) who lives on his own, so wNw MAX is mostly out of the way, might need to get a broadband connection

Don't delete the post, they probably wouldn't care what you say. (A t-mobile dude was telling me to flash a different rom to my xda, so it would be fully compatible with them!)

Unfortuneatly on t-mobile they do not allow IM services on their web 'n' walk internet :( I think you'd have to find a wifi point.

i read fair usage policy, its not alloved for w'n'w but for w'n'w plus is no mention of IM. i sent them a letter via their web, so i'm awaiting answer

so if your using skype, msn,etc on the basic WnW and they block that, no point in complaning as you wont have a leg to stand on

i'm on wnw+ so im pissed off. i sesnt them a mail on sund. i do not use skype as viop client only for IM. but i cannot use im+(icq...), mchat, msn messenger, irc. pinkies in callcenter are stupid, they told me that they dont provide supp for 3rd party apps (except the shit in tmo's rom - and U must have extrom installed-so no way to have icon for msn). they sent me back nice letter that they recieved my complain and i will get ans within 5working days. its friday 2:11am and still nothing. BTW IM was reason for wnw2wnw+ upgrade. they are fucking bastards.
