Has anyone else noticed their push mail stuff (and web browsing) appears to be dead today?

I seem to be unable to ActiveSync or browse websites via any APN - I just get DNS errors :/

Just tried now, and it worked for me... I am in the Wellington area, using the www.vodafone.net.nz and web.vodafone.net.nz APNs.

Make sure your networks (Internet and Work) are both pointing to the correct connection configuration.

I called Vodafone (was hoping it'd just be a setting on my phone wrong) and it turns out they've lost a lot of their 3G sites around Auckland.  Forcing my phone to GSM makes email start working again but it's painfully slow without UMTS.

I've just come home from work only to find setting the connection to 3G or Auto will cause the Vodem to connect but it will exhibit the signs of a 'no data transfer' problem. Works fine on GPRS... slightly annoying.

I think this is currently being looked at.

Just an observation... I don't think I was lowering myself to the levels of the 'Go large' threads. :)

I'm in Remuera - it came back up about 5pm then went down again about 1730.  I ended up driving over to Parnell where it was working fine (and mighty fast too!).  Home again now and it's dead but I hope like hell it's going again tomorrow cause delayed emails mean hold ups for customers etc.

One day I'll be able to do away with my nice reliable T3G card :(
