Hi,

 

Got my ipad 2 yesterday and am trying to get on the 3g network.  I've got a vodafone PAYG SIM in the device but i can't seem to get online with it.  I've set the APN to SMART and the ipad have a good signal with the 3G indicator displaying.  When attempting to browse via safari i receive an error ' could not activate mobile data network'.

 

Aniy ideas?

Hi
Try these settings


APN: pp.vodafone.co.uk
Username:web
Password:web

I have tried all of the settings from above and not one of them works.  Does this mean changing to another provider if vodafone isn't doing the business?
