Messenger Live and t zones

[kolibrik]

Hi,

I am trying to make my t zones work for the internet and I somehow made it work for the web access. But when I try to connect with the Live messenger, it tells me that there is no signal and that: "There is connectivity problem..."
When I am on WiFi it works without a hitch and when I am through USB as well. Just not through GPRS. I do not see it even attempt to connect through GPRS. Is there a way to tell it to connect through wireless?
Thanks:confused:

T-Zones is a proxy service and Messenger will not work with a proxy. For this, you need the full T-Mobile internet service plan ($20/month). At some point, it is assumed that the T-Zones work around to get internet access will probably go away... you really aren't supposed to use T-Zones the way many are using it. Until that time, consider yourself lucky to be getting access for email and web browsing.

OK, I found out that the problem was on the T-mobile side. They did not activate the plan, but it is weird because I was able to got online couple times. Right now it is working, just like you said - internet, but not messenger. I think that at this point I will stick with T zones. Since T-mobile does not offer 3G, I do not know if to invest in $20 plan. I get through T zones pretty slow connection, but I do not know if through data plan you get faster connection. Anybody?

Data plan does not get you faster speed, but you could use socket services to say play online games or use different IMs, and of course if you travels a lot around airport or stay at starbucks a lot, the hotspot is a real plus, for just $14 more a month...

I actually changed to Data Plan, because the Hot Spot is really nice for my laptop and so I got it. The odd thing is I did not have to change anything in my settings and they still work. Have not tried the Proxy server yet for IM yet.
Check some forums, I think somebody posted exact setting on the forum, but I can give you mine:
WAP: 216.155.50:9201
Secure WAP: 216.155.165.50:9203
Socks: 216.155.165.50:1080
This should work just fine for the data (does fine for me). I know that somebody also posted a cab file for T-Mobile settings, look up the forums the name is tmobyjoe599
Good luck!
