I have been trying to get on my Blackberry browser all day. Each time I get a message about insufficient network coverage, please try again later.

So, I finally called Verizon. The data network is down, has been down all day, and they have no estimate when it will be fixed.

Anyone else facing this today?

I ran into this at about 10 AM, but oddly enough, I did a soft reset, and I've been fine since.

Thanks. I didn't realize there was a typo, but I am not usually a very good proofreader.

Hmm ... my brother and father both have Blackberries as well, and they are in Orrville. They haven't had any issues.

Looks like it's just you, THE4RINGZ. :D

Yeah that is why I called Verizon to double check to make sure it wasn't just my phone. I got a replacement phone on Friday which I did the programming myself and thought I might have missed something. The lady at Tech Support said it was a system wide problem.

Good news is it is working now.

I had problems all day with my Verizon Blackberry all day as well. I called them and they said they weren't experiencing any problems but to reset my phone. I pulled the battery and all is now fine.
