According to info on T-Mobile's site, everyone should use epc.tmobile.com for everything. Info online is varied and inconsistent. Everyone has different plans and grandfather this and that, it seems no 2 people have the same experience with T-Mobile internet plans.
I used the 25$ plan and it all worked without issue

I think the epc is for smartphones and for it to work correctly requires the $25 plan. But that's based off one post and wiki entry I read, people have reported all kinds of success with different plans and APNs.

I'm on the $10 plan as well internet2 works, around 500-800 kbps down speed dns doesn't seem too slow. epc won't work for me, snds me to an upgrade page.
But I'm pretty happy with it since it saves me $15 a month, I'm not a real heavy user though (wifi at work and home).

For dns go to opendns.org and use their dns server numbers primary and secondary.

it's just weird that exchange works on epc... maybe tunnel everything thru that port.
