My BB Browesr cant connect to anything except, MYBB :p
FB, VW Club etc all give a Error 400 or Connection Timeout error, same with Google.

Email works fine, BBM, Opera Mini, Apps, Appstore etc, all other data ports working fine except BB Browser.

Ive reset all fields, Cleared cache, cookies etc, not sure whats wrong...
 
You're on Vodacom, aren't you ?

Been having the same issue - this is my 3rd day. Everything takes about 10 refreshes - even MyBB - before anything happens. And if it does, it's super slow ... half GPRS speeds

Yip Voda, on BES.
Also started on Saturday...
 
... now NOTHING works (BBM etc) ; despite the BB dots in the corner.

I'm not sure who to blame, but at this stage I do blame Vodacom ....
 
This jus happened to me. But when I switched to 3G it started working fine again.
 
Also wasnt working this morning, but from about 9am it's been ok
 
Mines still dead - 3.5 days.

Yesterday at work was OK and home DEAD. Now it trickles data - so delayed everything and refreshing 10x to get anywhere.

R70.00 BIS
R389.00 Voda data 1
R160.00 Voda data 2
R135.00 Voda data 3

... and can't use anything

*sigh*
 
Yip mine still stuffed, 155 says contact my companies IT they say 155...

I'm not sure what's wrong...
I'm using an Advanced data bundle, do you think they throttling speeds out of bundle?
 
I've changed the BlackBerry browser to InternetBrowser and now everything works fine ;-)
 
I've never had any problems. Did you guys try removing and re-inserting the battery?

I'm not sure about BES, but BIS is definitely "throttled" by default. Does not matter what bundle you buy. Last i checked BIS was 384kbps speeds, even if your phone can handle HSDPA. If you connect without BIS [and thus use your data bundle] you should get better speeds though , but then you pay. So BIS [and BES] is actually a different network you connect to [different from normal 3G / HSDPA ] .

You normally need to specifically configure your applications/browser to use "regular 3G" [and not BIS/BES] if your phone still connects to BIS/BES .
