I figured my T-Zones was just acting weird because of me being a new customer, but it turns out that they are upgrading voice and data systems here (that's what they told me). So T-Zones will give you a message like "Your plan does not support this feature." They said it should be fixed my the 31st. And like I said above, they said they're updating voice and data systems. Does this mean the voicemail system is being updated, too?

No idea, but till the 31st seems like a long time for people that are addicted to using it

Same thing in the Boston area re T-Zones, but we're not scheduled for the voicemail system upgrade until July 5.

According to the list posted on "the other site", Phoenix was to have received the voicemail system upgrade this past week, however some have reported that it did not occur.

T-Zones did not work last Monday evening, when I called them, I was informed that they were upgrading servers in the area and that the upgrades would continue evenings, through May 31.

T-Zones is back up two days early

. Everything is working fine and at a pretty fast speed, too.

How fast of speed do you get on your phone Gideon when using T-Zones?

Gideon H · 05-30-2005, 4:03 PM

I don't know how to find out the actual speed unless it's connected with my computer (and I don't have my Bluetooth adapter anymore), but to put it simply nothing takes over two seconds to load. With my V600, it used to take almost 10 seconds sometimes to load WA00.com, but with my E398 over T-Zones it's never more than 2. Hope that gives some explanation.

Are you 'allowed' to tether your connection to use on a computer with T-Mobile?? If I have my VZW phone connected to my computer I get at least twice the speed of dial up.

Gideon H · 05-30-2005, 8:54 PM

I did that with my V600 when I still had my Bluetooth adapter. I was allowed to then, and I'm going to buy a new adapter and try it again. I don't know if they'll charge me extra or keep it under my "unlimited t-zones" plan. But to have wireless high-speed for only $5/mo would be nice

That would be awesome, but not sure if there isn't something in your contract stating you're not allowed to do that...Oh Well, we still do it

Gideon H · 05-31-2005, 2:13 AM

From what I've heard, having only T-Zones enabled on your plan can restrict certain types of connections. In this case, it restricts port 80 connections. Using my phone as a modem could be port 80 and will be restricted. But we'll just wait and see!

Andy · 05-31-2005, 1:15 PM

I would think that they did something to restrict your phone to work as a modem- but let us know.

Gideon H · 05-31-2005, 5:47 PM

Sure thing. If/when my stuff sells on eBay, I'll buy an adapter or data cable right after and try it out.
