Greetings everyone,

I have an Alltel PPC6800 which I've updated with dcd's 3.2.2 kitchen rom. I first installed the 2.40 olie boot loader, followed by updating the 3.37.20 Radio, updated the ROM, ran the carrier cab, and activated it successfully.

Whenever I try to connect to the internet through PIE, it first tells me my username and password is wrong. I looked this up and many suggest using the phonenumber@alltel.net with the password alltel. Unfortunately, it still claims there's issues connecting.

Reading the wiki . . . it seems there might be a problem on their end? Or is there still something to check/fix on my end?

Thanks in advance

Have you tried doing *228 option 2?

alltel user here..yeah i don't have to re-activate the phone, but that sounds like the issue if you ran the carrier cab "on the device". I think a long time ago i had to *228 it, but nothing since. like the previous post said...try that...that might get it.

Sorry. I meant option 3 activate new phone, but yes I have alltel also and had to do that after upgrading the radio. Option 3 will reprovision your phone.
