Can't connect to the internet

[kurtw357]

I just bought the Milestone which should be able to get 3G with AT&T which I have but I cannot connect at all, even with Edge. I don't know how to go about fixing the issue so if you have any suggestions that would be great.

I hope someone may be able to help you soon.

doesnt att require sim cards to connect to their network. It was that way with my iphone and htc tilt.

Yeah, i put my sim in and uploaded contacts, but everything i've done on the internet has been through wifi. Do I need to activate something to turn on 3G? It seems like it should be already set up since I had unlimited data with my iPhone

you may have to set it up with att cuz i switched my sim from tilt to iphone and it would not work. had to have att set it up.

Eh... I was hoping I wouldn't have to go into the store and deal with them and their questions. I'm sure they're going to ask me why I bought a phone that AT&T N.A. doesn't even sell. Anyone else have any problems connecting to the internet when they first got the Milestone on the AT&T network?

ok, so under status is says "Mobile Network State: Disconnect". How do I change that? Also the mobile network type is just edge, hopefully that can also be changed. Suggestions?

Must admit I am unfamiliar with that. I am doing a google search. I will let you know if I find something.
