Cannot access international sites/servers on GPRS

[MainMeat]

HI,

I have a problem with accessing international websites, or any international server as a matter of fact. I can see all local websites, mweb, mybroadband ect, but no access to international servers?

Whats up VC, I have confirmation from a user in Centurion having the same issue...I am in PTA?

mine just says...

Server not found

Firefox can't find the server at www.gamefaqs.com.

* Check the address for typing errors such as
ww.example.com instead of
www.example.com

* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.

* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
