When I try to view web pages using the Wireless Network, I get a blank page. What can I do? more

This is usually seen if the device has been idle for a while and the Wireless Network connection has been lost however, the device isn't aware of the disconnection. To resolve this, end the Data Session by pressing the End Call Button once (this will remove the small 3G icon that is above your signal strength indicating that the connection has been ended) and launch your browser to establish a new connection. If this does not resolve the issue, perform a soft reset (this will prompt the device to attempt to establish a new data session). Was this helpful? Yes | No
