That's for damn sure. I cleared all my settings and even called Fido/Rogers to disable Edge from being accessed on my account - I'm not paying their batshit f'n loco rates.

Thank you it is working fine. I am very aware of the cost of this thing. I will only use during emergency times. I also find that rogers in certain areas cuts out a bit easier in the iphone then my other phone. Could be my imagination but not sure. But overall loved the phone part now as i was using all the other parts. I found a good guy in Mississauga who does the hardware hack for $100 bucks . Only a small scratch on my iphone barerly noticable. I could no longer wait for that fiasco iphonesimfree. Paypal has just told all the resellers they have to return the money as they have no real product. What a mess.

I pay $10 for 10MB on Rogers' Mobile internet plan. You can also choose the $5 for 5MB. 10MB is not much but it is so easy to monitor your usage. Settings/Usage/EDGE Network Data - shows you the Sent and Received. Having no data, really limits the iPhone experience. If you just use your Widgets for updates and some Google Maps, it should be ok. Internet surfing is very limited for me on EDGE. Plus, it's pretty slow I find.

I would think google maps is heavy on the data download. I am curious how big an area it downloads in relation to the location you are looking for. It is also possible that it downloads each layer of drill-down detail as well for refresh speed. Next time you look at Google Maps; check your data rate, pull up a location and check your rate again.

Is there a way to check this in Firefox? Safari?

Hi G42G6,

On my Edge setting tap, it would only let me enter the APN, Username and Password. It would not let me enter the IP and Port info. I have tried puting in both the WAP APN and EDGE APN (internet.fido.ca) settings in. The Edge APN setting will come back with the same error msg (EDGE not activated), and when I use the WAP APN setting, it connects but safari, weather, stocks, maps just keeps on loading with no end results. I have double checked with Fido to make sure my data package is active. Nothing is working.... Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

I am having the exact same problem.

"Could not activate EDGE. You are not subscribed to EDGE"

I called fido and they say I have the data plan and gave me the same internet settings. I don't know more to do.
