Help Metro having data problems again?

My data stopped working at about 8AM EST. Anyone else having problems? It is acting exactly like it did with the problem a couple weeks ago. I hope this is not happening again! :mad:
 
Im a SFL geek confirm you are not crazy :) I have been having same issues as you. I'm getting fed up with this service but Im locked in to this low price and would suffer huge early termination fees (new phones)!
 
It is a little different than last time for me. Some apps can connect and some cannot. For example, Flixster and Gas Buddy work fine, but the Market and all web browsers do not. I am guessing that they use different pathways to get data.

I will not be able to call them until later because of meetings, but I have my fingers crossed that this will not last as long as last time.
 
Detroit here 7am went out completely today came back about 9/10am "kind of" still have piss poor signal and data is pretty useless at the speed its at maybe a east coast thing

I skipped right over this post , but it pretty much assures me its multi-regional issue as I had same issue with certain apps functioning

You're better off using wifi. Metro's "data" is unreliable. Their so-called 4g isn't even up to par with other networks' 3g.

4G??? You do know that the Optimus M cannot receive the 4G signal, right?

Also, you must not work in the corporate world. There are wifi signals all around me all day, but it would take an act of congress for me to get a password to one of them!
 
I know the Optimus cant get 4G. I was just saying how bad metro's network is.

And no, I dont work. Im a college student lol. I barely use the web outside of school and my house (where I get wifi) because metro's data can be frustrating at times.
 
I was having the same issues yesterday where I could not get access through any of my browsers or the market but everything seems to be doing a lot better today; had no problems yet
 
Learn WEP or WPA cracking. This is a Linux OS.
