3G Settings..?

I posted on XDA, but no reply... so am hoping to get one here... :

Ok, I finally got a 3G sim card for my phone, i put it in and everything, but.. no 3G? I know I'm within coverage because my friend has it.. I tried a different APN setup that I found on the interweb but still all I am getting is Edge. . . could someone help me out..? I probably missed something due to lack of sleep -.-; here is the APN setup i have now:

"Name: CBW Web
APN: wap.gocbw.com
Proxy: 216.68.79.202
Port: 80
Username: cbw
Password: <Not set>
Server: 216.68.79.199
MMSC: <Not set>
MMS proxy: <Not set>
MMS port: <Not set>
MCC: 310
MNC: 420
Authentication type: <Not set>
APN type: default

and for MMS:

Name: CBW MMS
APN: wap.gocbw.com
Proxy: <Not set>
Port: <Not set>
Username: <Not set>
Password: <Not set>
Server: <Not set>
MMSC: http://mms.gocbw.com:8088/mms
MMS proxy: 216.68.79.202
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 420

I use the interweb on my phone a lot, and am sick of Edge, and I know i have 3G coverage where I am sitting.. Someone help pretty please? Thank you^^"
