Help mobile network problems

samsung galaxy w unable to activate mobile network (3g). WIFI works, any ideas
have pressed the power button and activated data betwork mode, think i have done the right things in network settings im new and hopeless

Have you set up APN settings in

Settings/Wireless and networks/Mobile networks/Access Point Names.....??

If you are with your original Service Provider, these should be set up OK...if you are using a SIM from another provider, you will need to set these up!!

You can also choose Network Mode here...leaving it on GSM only will save Battery!!!

But for higher speeds....

GSM/WCDMA Auto is best...
