It just started this week. I can surf WAP any time during the day via CSD (using up 200+ bonus minutes). Can even connect at the start of off peak hours (free nights). But I am unable to use WAP via CSD between the hours of 9:30 pm and just before 7:00 am. If I want to use WAP during this off-peak time period, I must use GPRS (which is expensive while CSD would be free at those times). Yet, like clockwork, all this week, CSD access went down exactly when it is free.

Is anyone else finding this problem?

Any idea what might be causing this problem? Is it because too many people are trying to use it ? Is T-mobile turning it off because it noticed that too many people are using free CSD? Any help would be appreciated. TIA

I had no problems WAPing yesterday (Saturday) with CSD. Maybe it was just a local problem?

Just for the record, a follow-up: T-Mobile USA keeps on having network problems with my phone. CSD was not down. My phone needed to be reset on their side. There always seems to be a problem of some sorts. This week an sms that was sent to me got stuck in an mms loop. It came once an hour until they went in manually to delete it! I wonder if my 13-sec'd phone with nowmms as my message server is messing up my connection to the network?

How old is your SIM card? if it is older than 6 mos. or so, I would look into a new one.

could be a network outage. working for a mobile company on the maintenance side I know that most if not all major work is done out of hours to minimise disruption to customers.
If the problem continues much longer though I'd rule out that option

Well, the problem does appear to be network problem, not the phone's problem. Thanks for your suggestions.
