connection failure

My second hand Blackberry 9860, in good condition, will not connect to Telstra, or even detect a Telstra signal, ecept once in a very good reception spot but would not connect. Any clues?

Re: connection failure

In response to Horrendo

There were two models of the 9860 released. One was designed to work ont he Telstra Network and supported the 850MHz UMTS Band. The other was designed to work on the Optus network and supported the 900MHz UMTS Band.

 

I suspect you have the Optus variant. It will only connect to Telstra when you are in a 2100MHz UMTS Telstra reception area (few and far between).

Never be afraid to back yourself when trying new things, just always make sure you have 3 escape routes if things go wrong.

Set it & forget it

With direct debit there’s no need to give paying your bill another thought.

Avoid queuing up and never worry about late fees again.
