I have recently bought a new phone, I have a Maxis and Digi line, but my primary line is still Maxis which is for calling and receiving calls from friends and family. Sometimes, I do blog on the go, post some tweets and check the mail with the phone.

However, somehow I can’t get the Internet and data to work on the N95 with my Maxis line. I have already activated by 3G and GPRS data connection, have all the settings but it says “Packet Data : Connection Not Allow” when I am trying to connect to the Internet with 3G or EDGE GPRS.

I went to the Maxis service center and the people are noob, they just download the setting agains and asked me to wait for a text message contain the data setting, then restart my phone. I wait, the setting came, restarted and it’s still not working.

I get frustrated and called Maxis up. After some guidance from the lady, I am now able to connect to the Internet again. It’s pretty easy to edit the setting, it’s something to do with the connection setting on your phone.

1. Press menu key.
2. Go to Tools > Setting > Connection
3. Scroll to the last one or just press up key. You will see APN control. A pop up message will appear “Connection restriction….”
4. Press Option > Deactivate Restriction.
5. PIN2 is 1234.
6. When it’s says deactivated/inactive, restart your phone.
7. Turn on again, surf the net now.

Pretty easy right? Try it now. If it does not work, call Maxis at 123. That’s what I always do.
