Hi Petros. A Samsung Galaxy S2 I use has the following values for the APN configuration: Name: Telstra Internet APN: telstra.wap MCC: 505 MNC: 01 APN type: default,supl All other fields are left "Not set" or at their default settings. Telstra 3G sits in the 850Mhz band. See http://whirlpool.net.au/wiki/mobile_phone_frequencies for details. My (admittedly hazy) memory tells me that Telstra used to do 3G on more than one frequency, but dropped back to 850Mhz only a year or so ago. Regards, Morrie.

I would second this. It is likely that your Firefox OS doesn't have the APN settings required for your carrier built in, so they may need to be configured manually.
Thanks. I find this (e.g.) http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/archive/1441187
and there seem to be many APNs (telstra.wap, telstra.mms, telstra.internet)..
I only can find this on GUI level:
Telstra Internet (radio button, default on) and
alternatively custom settings, prefilled with:
APN: telsta.mms,
Identifier, password, HTTP proxy port and host: all empty.
The phone is a quadband phone according to the sticker.
Bands are a bit confusing:

Note: the Hong Kong phones also support tri-band 3G Networks - HSDPA 850/1900/2100 (850/1900 for US, CA, 850/1900/2100 for Asia, AU, and 900/2100 for EU.)
Well, the network scan for 3G says: "Telstra available" (and Optus and Vodaphone forbidden - I have a Telstra SIMM) so I am fine, I guess?
Sorry, I am obviously clueless here..
Regards Peter
