Default BB Storm 9550 Internet connection problems

Please Login to Remove!

I recently acquired a Storm 2 (Verizon) and I am not able to connect to the internet. When I try, a message pops up indicating that that is a "Wi-Fi service. Please ensure your device has a Wi-Fi connection and try again."

How do I change it to be able to use the internet without Wi-Fi?

I am also in an extended coverage area, but was able to use the internet last week...

Thanks

The browser is set as default to Hotspot Browser
Change it to Internet Browser
Options [wrench icon] - advanced - browser config - top option.

...and if that doesn't do it, I would recommend a powered on, battery pull for one minute, reboot... and try again.

Do you have a BlackBerry data package with your carrier?
