For some odd reason, I can't use any browser without wifi (it worked fine with and without wifi with 2.1). It won't even try to load the screen with 3G only. 3G works fine for every non-internet browser app. I've tried it with 3G-only on facebook app, texting, email, gmail, phone, and market. Those all work fine. The default browser, Opera, Skyfire, and dolphin won't work. I really don't want to downgrade back to 2.1 to be able to browse the web on the go.

Any help? Or is wifi the only way to browse the web on 2.2 for some reason?

I had the same issue. Browsing is possible on WiFi but not on the mobile data plans. The only fix I sought was to check the APN settings. I just removed the entries in the fields of proxy and server of the APN settings. Now the browser works smooth even on data plans.
