Anyone know if u can get the internet on the tmobile wing using the 5.99 plan thru t mobile.Got it on my dash using this plan by changing some proxy settings and connection settings and it works flawlessly and wanted to know if it could work on the wing.Also there is no wifi where I am and if you could reply with instructions that would be great.
Yes, you should be able to, and it should be the exact same process. I'm using mine right now on it. Let me find you a guide:
T-Zones Internet Settings:
1. Open up your keyboard and get out your stylus because it will make it easier
2. Start menu --> Settings
3. Go to 'Connections' tab
4. Then click on Connections app
5. Select 'Set up my proxy server'
6. Select the 'General' tab
7. On the general tab, name it "WAP" (or anything, really, that's just what I used) -- if you haven't messed with this before, it will say "My Work Network"
8. Select the 'Modem' tab
9. Click on New...
10. Name the connection "Tzones" (again, that's what I used)
11. Under modem, select 'Cellular Line (GPRS)'
12. Click Next
13. Under access point name, type "wap.voicestream.com"
14. Click Next
15. Leave "User name", "Password", and "Domain" blank (not a space, but blank)
16. Click on Advanced...
17. On the 'TCP/IP' tab, ensure "Use server-assigned IP address" is checked and that nothing else is checked or filled-in
18. On the 'Servers' tab, ensure "Use server-assigned addresses" is checked and that nothing else is checked or filled-in
19. Click "ok" in the top right corner (or press the OK button next to your space bar)
20. Click Finish
21. Select the 'VPN' tab and make sure there is nothing here
22. Select the 'Proxy Settings' tab
23. Check the box "This network connects to the Internet"
24. Then you can check the box that says "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet"
25. Then type into the Proxy server box: 216.155.165.50:8080
26. Click on Advanced...
27. Click on "HTTP"
28. The server should read 216.155.165.50
29. Change the port number to 8080
30. Leave "User name", "Password", and "Domain" blank (not a space, but blank)
31. Click "ok" in the top right corner (or press the OK button next to your space bar)
32. And do the "ok" thing again
33. And "ok" one more time
34. Notice 1: at the top of the screen, it should say "WAP" (or whatever name you chose in step 7)
35. Notice 2: where before it said 'Set up my proxy server' now it should read 'Edit my proxy server' -- just FYI, don't touch
36. Click on the 'Advanced' tab
37. Click on "Select Networks"
38. Under both drop-down boxes, choose "WAP" (or the name you chose in step 7) -- I'm not sure the 2nd one needs to be the same, but what the heck, it worked for me; feel free to experiment
39. Click "ok" in the top right corner (or press the OK button next to your space bar)
40. And do the "ok" thing again
41. Push the "e" on your MDA to launch Internet Explorer
42. Make sure you're not connected via the USB cable
43. Go to "Favorites" and choose one of the sites listed there and see if it works
Enjoy! Like I said, this is working on mine so if it doesn't I'd suggest a hard reset and try again...(After backing up first!)
still cant get it to work,when I type into the proxy server the 216 numbers ending with 8080,well the 8080 is never there when I go back to that screen.....If that has anything to do with it.Other then that I followed everything to the letter and everything happened as you said it would.Still no internet.Help please!!!!!
I called t-mobile they said that I couldn't get internet with the 5.99 plan that I needed the 20.00 plan. When I had my samsaung I got internet for free. Now with the wing I have to pay for it, I can't even go to tzone web. the WAP doesnt work. I have wireless at home and I get on that way. Other than that I'm not paying and extra 20.00 a month to have internet on my phone.
Does any one know how to get tv or look at podcast on the wing. What do I need to purchase or how to get a good radio station on the wing?
so the more I try and use the internet on this phone, the more I hate it this site is hard to scroll through too I pay 20 a month don't think the phones are advanced yet enough

Highlight the address that only has 80, you have to double click it and it will open a new window where you can type in port 8080. This should take care of it.
