I just tried to set up my phone for data and it's not working. I did all the steps, rebooted, and it doesn't show a connection and cannot get to any websites. I double checked the settings and they are all correct. There is 2g coverage in my area. Any ideas what the problem could be and how to fix it? I have the GSM Galaxy Nexus and an AT&T sim card (there's no t-mobile data coverage in my area but there is AT&T). I turned off wifi to force data on and made sure that data is enabled in the settings. HELP!

I'm a dunce. When I typed part of it in, I typed in the dot and then the .com button without noticing the . was already in the .com. So it was there twice. The sad thing is, I did the same on the 2nd place that I had to enter something similar and I caught it that time. :coffee:
