When I try to use the Internet it says safari can't connect to the Internet . It won't do it on 3g or edge. It works on wifi and everything else works but that, what is the problem?
 
i cant connect to internet or collect email on my iphone it did it this morning but not now it tells me it cant activate cellular data network
 
Try performing a reset by holding down both home and power buttons together until the phone shuts down, release when you see the Apple logo appear again. If that does not do the trick. you can also try resetting the Network settings. Remember, just the Network settings.

can't access internet on edge or 3g

We are having the same problem. We added my GF to our Family Plan with her old iphone. It accesses everything fine on WiFi, but never worked on 3G or Edge.

Took it to the ATT store and they said "It's your phone" and didn't want to deal with it. Help!
 
ARGHHH!!! i updated my phone to the most recent sofware and the 3G internet has not been working :( My network bars in the corner are ALWAYS low when others are not! i restored my phone but still is not working! PLEASE HELP!!
 
OMG 1 night was watching youtube in bed then internet froze i checked it out but when i try to conected again it says it cant find it and now its gone... wat do i do??????
 
Yes I have the same prob but I can sorta connect it just won't let me get on safari itsays "Safari cannot display the webpage" and earlier I tried to download something from the AppStore and it's still says waiting and it's been like that for three days now any help?:(
 
My iphone 3gs would not connect to the internet thru 3G. I did a full factory reset and this fixed the problem, but I lost all my apps and data, so I did a restore from backup, and the problem came back. Itunes informed me that new carrier data was available (I'm with O2 - UK) - still got problem. Did a network reset through settings> general>network>cellular data network>reset settings. Initially this did not work, but if you turn off your phone (hold power button down until slider "slide to power off" - reboots OS) and then turn it back on, it works (well, it did for me!)
 
My phone says "safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the internet"!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?:confused:
 
So today I was in class and downloaded Temple Run from the app store. The app didn't and still hasn't showed but thats not the problem. Okay so anyway usually when I turn off my phone and then turn it back on it loads the app so thats what I did and after that my internet wouldn't connect grrr so mad! I need it back any suggestions??
 
mine does the same!! it say 'cannot open cuz not connceted to the internet when i am connected to a wi-fi???? i have restet it all please HELP!!! :(
