How to get online with T-Mobile USA
If you subscribe to the optional T-Mobile Total Internet service, you just need to select T-Mobile internet in the preference.If you have the optional T-MobileWeb service, you must access the internet via proxy. In the preference screen, select T-Mobile T-Zone first. Go to Blazer (the Palm "Web" application), go to Preferences, Advanced, Set Proxy to 216.155.165.50 and port to 8080. T-Mobile's own instructions (see External Link section) say to use port 9201.
