anybody knows this issue ? is it me? my torch? my home wifi? or my carrier issue?

thanks for the help guys.
To my understanding, Du and Etisalat have switched off access to BBM and mail via Wifi, to "force" the traffic via their networks, and thus the servers installed with RIM.

We can still access the web via wifi, but not the two above mentioned functions (We know it due to the absence of the BB icon next to the wifi logo).
