For what purpose do you need it? Sometimes these work.


APN: wap.cingular
Username: [email address]
Password: CINGULAR1

Never had the .com on mine. Saw another post today without it too.

For what it's worth, the APN isn't a hostname, so it doesn't have the .com at the end of it. wap.cingular is just the designation for the access point (wap, meaning it's WAP protocol, cingular meaning it belongs to the orange blob from hell)
