Hi
first post as best to come to those who know,
i bought my son the 3gs and i decided to use his 3g,
i have a contract phone with Carphone warehouse via o2, no internet so i rung them and added the 'net bolt-on,
i have connected ok with wi-fi on my own router but am getting the no cellular data network, when trying to connect on the 'net,
do i need to change any settings? or unblock this phone? apology for what may seem silly questions but never used one before and my son has had all 3 iphones but via Apple/o2 so his service is always on,
just to add my sim works ok and i have checked and am not being charged, to be honest if i had known i could connect via wi-fi i probably wouldnt have added the 'net bolt-on as i don't really want/need to use it on the move but now i have paid for it would like to try
apology for the waffle and thanks for any help;)
 
it's ok i have found the info'
just thought someone may have asked this question before,
so for future here is the link that solved my problem, and also
tells you how to turn on mms
the bit that helped me was
I AM A PAY MONTHLY CUSTOMER BUT NOT ON AN IPHONE TARRIFF
thanks anyway
