I signed up for the $7/month unlimited on-device browsing with Rogers PayGo. Then I set up the goam.com APN with the proper web proxy. I used to tether my cheap PayGo phone to my N800 (for over a year) in this manner for web browsing. It worked like a charm. When I got the loaner N900, I simply placed my Rogers PayGo SIM in it, and setup the internet connection using the same APN (goam.com), and it worked fine.

You can PM me if you need some assistance,

Edit-the few that I have tried to help configure the goam apn on rogers could not get it working. Since I am not a rogers customer anymore, I will not be able to assist in setting this up, sorry!
