As the subject line says, *111# results in either "All connections are in use" or "Service temporarily unavailable. Please try again later". Is anyone else currently experiencing this?

Secondly, when dialling up Vodacom 3G/GPRS through my phone (Sony Ericsson V630i), I can get an IP address on the laptop, with full DHCP configuration settings, but I cannot ping or connect to any website. The connection just sits there, doing nothing. If I put a MTN sim card in the same phone, everything works great. I'm using the default Vodacom APN, although I've also tried the Vodalive APN (still nothing). Any ideas, please? Kind of sucks having a 3G connection but not being able to do anything with it.

Thanks

EDIT: since last night, ongoing today. Location: Randburg, Bryanston, Northcliff

New post in case you didn't see the edited post above. As mentioned, since last night (20th), in the Randburg, Bryanston and Northcliff area.

Tried again and the USSD works now. Will try the 3G again.

If you get a connection and cannot browse , check anti virus specially if you using Nortons...., try disable anti-virus , see if you can browse a web site, if so, then go into your expections on your anti virus , and add your VMC
