So it looks like it could be an n900 app issue rather than tmobile blocking if connection to msn etc is possible on web n walk via symbian phones using the same sim? What about msn via pidgin with other uk providers?

no problem with msn (all 3 versions), ovi, google talk, facebook chat, xmpp.org, sip (poivy), skye N900 3UK. In fact no unexplained connectivity issues

Just thought I'd add my 2pence.

At least in the UK, it works if you have T-Mobiles mobile broadband, I don't know why this works with ordinary 3G but it does.

I currently have both, on two different SIM's but I shall talk to TMobile tomorrow and see if I can arrange to join the two into one sim card, or add it to one si card and cancel the other.

Will let you know how that works out.

Hi. You say you tested mobile broadband plus. Are you using a usb wireless modem on a pc or n900. As far as I am aware, I didn't have a choice of mobile internet options as part of my t-mobile contract.

o.k, I upgraded to web and walk plus, and apparently, the only difference between web and walk plus and mobile broadband, is the way you access the phone, either directly though a USB dongle or via your phone.

However, this hasn't solved the problem, so now I'm onto phone call number 2.

Well, phone call number 2 hasn't solved anything. This is starting to get a touch annoying.

It will work with the t-mobile sim card from the mobile broad band dongle, but not with my standard simcard and yet they apparently on the same technical set up.

This leads me to believe that the problem is the sim card set up.

Come on T-Mobile, pull your socks up!

Final result I got from T-mobile..

You need the mobile broadband plus/ web and walk plus package, because apparently under the fair use policy of of the standard web and walk and the somewhat arbitrary 1gb download limit they have placed on it, they are basicly baring your access untill you pay for the 12'50 a month add on.

So, if i've got this right i need to pay an extra £12.50 per month to enable msn to work over standard web n' walk - oh, and to get an extra 2gb bandwidth i don't need.. but skype works over the standard set up.. wheres the sense there?
