I got a microcell for free today thanks to AT&T and it's working perfectly but I can't send MMS. Its stopping at 90% and hanging. Is it just going to take a day or so to register IMEI and all that for it to work? I only tried it twice.



Any help would be awesome

I've had a MicroCell since April. When I had my 3GS I had no problems sending MMS (except for the fact that it's EXTREMELY slow since they cap the upload on the MicroCell under 60kbps, but that's a different story). I also think but could be wrong that I was able to send them when I first got my iPhone 4 on the 24th, but I started noticing last week that I can no longer send them, I can receive them just fine however.

My MMS works fine...though i've had the Microcell for 6 weeks and I still drop calls on it. I have no signal in my house at all!!! So I need the Microcell, so just watch for dropped calls. I may have to exchange it.

I sent an mms to my GF earlier and got this message:

One or more of the message components have been deleted by MMS Adaptation. Either the message was too large or the components were unsuitable for your terminal.

Okay, I found the solution.... at least for my case.

Log into your account at wireless.att.com. Go to the section to manage your 3G MicroCell. Once there, choose the option to disconnect your MicroCell. Confirm the disconnection.

Wait for you MicroCell to go offline. Once that's happened go to wireless.att.com/3gmicrocell and choose the option to activate your MicroCell. Go through the process, it's the same as the first time you activated it. Once it comes back online, you should hopefully be able to send MMS messages again. It worked for me.

Good luck!

Weird. Was away from home for a few hours and just sent an mms and it works fine. Must have just needed to register with AT&T or something. Works fine now

I cannot send MMS messages on mine either. It's very frustrating. I have to go disconnect the MicroCell and then send it over the regular AT&T network.

Has anyone found a solution to this?

how did you get it for free?

If it wasn't for my MicroCell, I'd have to live in only the front section of my house! I am able to use all functions of my phone. The iPad can also use the MicroCell which seems nuts because I do have WiFi in the house but some messaging notification works better via 3G when both are on I get notification.

If you are using a router , go to open network and sharing center,
click on wireless network connection,
click details, find your router ip address, go to the address using browser ,
this will show all current settings for you router,
go to security and disable the firewall......"make sure you save settings"
PROBLEM SOLVED. you can now send pics with microcell It was a major
aggravation for me so I figured it out and I want to pass it along..
