I have the unlimited Medianet service with AT&T. This morning I noticed I couldn't get on the internet with my Tilt. I tried all sites with no luck. I restarted my connection, and even did a SR. Nothing! I went to my wife's BJ2... samething. Anyone have some insight on what I'm going through? Is the reign of $15 unlimited internet over? :(

I'm having problems, too, but I suspect mine are more complex than yours. :(
I've been having difficulty connecting to the internet after loading WM6. Before that, I had WM2003SE and my phone started connecting w/ GPRS spontaneously. It was costing me a lot, because I had one of the smaller mMode plans. Tried to switch over to MEdia Net, and customer service wouldn't let me since my phone is a PDA (SX66). They want us to spring for the $35 service.
I'm wondering if I need to upgrade my radio (running on 1.02.10) or look for a patch of some sort to get my internet connectivity working again. Right now I can't connect to anything and AT&T tech support suspects that I may have corrupted something with the OS upgrade. I'm not technologically savvy, so I'm really at a loss for ideas on this.
I refuse to purchase a new device simply to get internet back. I love my SX66 and would hate to give it up.

try removing the wap username and password... They changed the connection settings to not have username and password anymore!
See this link for more info:

but it specifically says to leave user/pass blank!

My HTC wizard has no username or pass on the WAP settings, but it still refuses to connect. I doesn't even display the G or E....
Judging by AT&T's Medianet forum (http://forums.wireless.att.com/cng/board?board.id=medianet), a lot of people are having problems, and AT&T's response has been sticking their fingers in their ears and telling people to check their settings and call support. Unfortunately I'm in training for a certification all week and am not a authorized account whatever....so I have to wait until the member of the family that is and myself have similar schedules.

Removing the username and pass worked on my tilt. I have interenet.

Still no internet for me. I double (well, quintuple) checked my settings, and I get the same problem when I put my SIM in an old AT&T Sony Ericsson clamshell, so it's definately not my settings.
