Proxy issues on my Galaxy S3

[Compton_effect]

Strange one - as of this morning - my browser stopped working on my Galaxy. Both Dolphin and the included browser gave the same proxy settings error. So I phoned customer care. A very helpfull young lady there handled my call and had me manually set up a new connection.
Interesting thing is - I was not the first call she'd had today with this issue, and all of them were users with Galaxy SIII's.
Anyone else experienced this?

I've been having exactly the same issue this morning!! I even went as far as wiping my cache and dalvik to try fix the problem.

Are you on Vodacom by any chance?

Yep.
WAP works, but the normal internet settings is down.

Do you perhaps have the WAP settings for me?

Did Vodacom say what the problem is or when it will be fixed?

 

[WesleyR]

Ok, seems to be fixed now, I can connect fine, haven't changed anything. Stupid Vodacom.

Settings - Mobile Network - Access Point Names - New APN.
Name: wap.vodacom
APN:internet
Proxy:196.006.128.012
Port: 8080
Server: http://wap.vodacom4me.co.za
APN Type: default
Save - Activate - Back One screen - Disable 'Use packet data'

But yeah- its workign again. Someone messed up the proxy server.

You guys dont have to use the proxy. Just set the APN to internet and the rest you leave blank.
